The Graduate Museum Lectureship Program offers visitors the opportunity to study art at the Modern in greater depth through focused gallery talks developed and presented by area graduate students in art and art history. Based on close observation, intensive research, and original analysis, these lectures explore works on view through a thematic and theoretical approach. Each thirty-minute talk is presented twice over the course of the semester, which allows museum visitors multiple opportunities to attend.
