The event celebrates the opening of Hard Art, a landmark exhibition examining the legacy of abstraction by Black artists in the US from 1969 to today. Legendary artists Howardena Pindell and James Little—who all also participated in PS1’s Afro-American Abstraction (1980)—join The Agnes Gund Director Connie Butler for a lively conversation on their practices.
