Artist Dan Graham discussed his latest landmark retrospective opening at the Whitney Museum of American Art with Kathy Battista, Programme Director of the MA Contemporary Art at Sotheby’s Institute of Art on Tuesday, 30 June, 2009.

Dan Graham is a conceptual artist now working out of New York City. He is an influential figure in the field of contemporary art, both a practitioner of conceptual art and an art critic and theorist. Graham especially focuses on the relationship between his artwork and the viewer in his pieces. Graham made a name for himself in the 1980’s as an architect of conceptual glass and mirrored pavilions.

The retrospective at the Whitney, Dan Graham: Beyond, examines Graham’s extensive body of work including photography, film and video, architectural models, drawings, prints & writings.
