Artist Talk:
Hank Willis Thomas
Aug 18, 2016
6:00 PM
637 E Hyman Ave
Presented by the Aspen Art Museum and Anderson Ranch Arts Center
Hank Willis Thomas was born in 1976, in Plainfield, NJ, and currently lives and works in New York. This year, he and Eric Gottesman founded For Freedoms, the first artist-run super PAC. Inspired by Franklin D. Roosevelt’s 1941 speech, “Four Freedoms” (freedom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom from want, and freedom from fear), this project has presented public works from contemporary artists to inspire deeper political engagement for citizens who want to have a greater impact on the American political landscape.
AAM education programs are made possible by the Questrom Education Fund. AAM talks and lectures are presented as part of the Questrom Lecture Series and made possible by the Questrom Education Fund.
Additional support for the Artist Talk Series is provided by the Good Works Foundation and Laura Donnelley.
