Glenn Kaino, an artist of impact in our time, works in the intersection of art, science, and society, often reimagining our relationship with the natural world. In many of his works he highlights the illusionistic and mesmeric effects of scientific and natural phenomena in large scale installations. Glenn will talk about his inventive, multidisciplinary approach, his sources of inspiration, his intrinsically collaborative method, and how his art creates engagement with vital issues. He has created a wide range of projects that thoughtfully consider important political, social, and environmental issues, such as equity, social justice, and climate change, among others. He describes each work as existing as A Constellation of Concerns, within which each project ethically engages multiple ideas in conceptually aligned ways. Kaino’s work was featured in the 2004 Whitney Biennial, New York; Prospect.3, New Orleans, in 2014; and the 12th Biennale de Lyon, France, in 2013. The artist represented the U.S. at the 13th Cairo Biennale in 2013, and has presented solo exhibitions at the MassMoCA, North Adams; the Andy Warhol Museum, Pittsburgh; the High Museum of Art, Atlanta; and elsewhere. Kaino is a Board Advisor to the Hammer Museum. For more information and to purchase tickets, please visit: https://www.mtwilson.edu/lectures
