Haegue Yang joins us via video chat to discuss the installation Handles with Stuart Comer, The Lonti Ebers Chief Curator of Media and Performance, and Taylor Walsh, curatorial assistant in the Department of Drawings and Prints. The artist will share the story of how this work developed and answer audience questions from South Korea.

One Work is a conversation series that features contemporary artists talking about the stories behind one specific work on view in the galleries. Each program, moderated by a MoMA curator, addresses audience questions and offers insight into the artist’s process. Taking place on the first Thursday evening of the month during museum hours, visitors can view the featured artwork before and after the program.

Haegue Yang: Handles is on view on Floor 2, Marron Atrium. There will be a performance of Handles at 7:45 p.m on March 5.

Program length: 60 minutes
