CALL / VoCA Talk: Gladys Triana

About This Event

In conversation with Dr. Ruth del Fresno-Guillem, Cuban-American artist Gladys Triana will discuss the cultural and historical significance of intentionally documenting her own life’s work and career.

Presented in partnership with VoCA (Voices in Contemporary Art), CALL / VoCA Talks are free, public artist talks that explore topics relating to artistic legacy and the long-term preservation of creative work. This series was first established five years ago as an extension of the Foundation’s Creating a Living Legacy (CALL) initiative, which provides artists with resources and instruction in the areas of studio organization, archiving, and inventory management.

The Talks feature artists who participated in the CALL initiative between 2010 and 2016 in dialogue with arts professionals from VoCA’s community who volunteer to spend a year meeting with the artists to develop an intimate understanding of their work and needs for documentation and preservation. The Talks provide a platform to make the behind-the-scenes discoveries of this process public, offering insights to artists and others in the field.
