Join us for an in-person conversation to celebrate the opening of Elizabeth Colomba: Mythologies with artist Elizabeth Colomba, Monique Long, independent curator, and Shalini Le Gall, Chief Curator and Susan Donnell and Harry W. Konkel Curator of European Art at the PMA. Visit the exhibition after the talk!  

The exhibition includes oil paintings, works on paper, and Colomba’s first video work, Cendrillon, commissioned by the Metropolitan Opera. Employing the visual language of portraiture, the artist addresses both the presence and absence of the Black figure in the history of academic painting.  

The exhibition opens May 5 and is on view through September 3, 2023. Learn more about the exhibition here.
