Seth Sieglaub with Lucy Lippard: A Conversation via Skype

Mar 18, 2012 At SITE Santa Fe

In the Time Capsule Lounge

In 1973, Lucy Lippard included Seth Siegelaub’s groundbreaking exhibition, March 1969 a.k.a. One Month, in her annotated bibliographic work Six Years: The dematerialization of the art object. Join us for an historic conversation between these two astute witnesses to the era of conceptual art.

Lippard is a writer/curator/editor/lecturer/activist, author of 21 books on contemporary art and cultural criticism, most recently Down Country: The Tano of the Galisteo Basin, 1250-1782 (Museum of New Mexico Press, 2010). She is a recipient of eight honorary degrees, a Guggenheim Fellowship and a Lannan grant among other awards. She lives in rural Galisteo, New Mexico where she is on the County Traditional Community Planning Committee and for 15 years has edited the monthly community newsletter: El Puente de Galisteo.

Siegelaub was born in the Bronx, New York in 1941 and grew up in New York City. He has been active as a plumber, art dealer, publisher, independent art exhibition organizer, political researcher and publisher, textile bibliographer and collector. Presently based in Amsterdam, Siegelaub is working on The Time and Causality Project. Under the auspices of the Stichting Egress Foundation, the project will provide an open-access bibliographic database, and online dictionary on the theories of time. www.egressfoundation.net
