Join Albright-Knox Director of Education and Community Engagement Jennifer Foley for a discussion of the exhibitions Jacob Kassay: OTNY and Eric N. Mack: Vogue Fabrics.

For his first solo museum exhibition in the United States, Jacob Kassay presents new works dispersed through the museum's galleries and transitional spaces that draw attention to the way we rationalize, navigate, and narrate our own movement through space. 

Eric N. Mack’s paintings and sculptures interweave found materials, soft sculpture, wearable fashion, display devices, and expanding notions of beauty. In his first solo museum exhibition Mack presents new works that abut, but do not resolve, resplendent forms with improbable functions.
