SAT, NOVEMBER 30 GALLERY TOUR
Join a curatorial fellow for a tour of Wave Hill’s fall exhibition, Tandem Pursuits: Armor & Ichthyology,
which celebrates the interests of former Wave Hill House resident
Bashford Dean. Dean was Curator of Arms and Armor at the Metropolitan
Museum of Art and Curator of Fish at the American Museum of Natural
History. The intersection of his interest in both fish and armor
provides the opportunity to bring together a remarkable group of
contemporary art that explores concepts of adaptation, pattern, and
protection. The tour also includes Alan Ruiz’s Sunroom Project
Space installation, an architectural intervention that complicates the
distinction between interior and exterior spaces. Tours take place
Tuesdays and Saturdays at 2PM. Free with admission to the grounds. FINAL TOUR OF THIS EXHIBITION
