MFA Fine Arts Lecture Series: Anne Ellegood

Anne Ellegood is the senior curator at the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles. She recently curated the show Jimmie Durham: At the Center of the World, which sparked incredibly significant discussions of race, identity, and the way artists are posited and categorized into these conversations. Previously, she was the New York-based Curator for Peter Norton’s collection, and from 1998-2003, she was the Associate Curator at the New Museum of Contemporary Art in New York. Since joining the Hammer in May 2009, Ellegood has organized solo projects with Claude Collins-Stracensky, Rob Fischer, Keren Cytter, Friedrich Kunath, Diana-Al Hadid, Eric Baudelaire, and Tom Marioni.
