Contributing members and special guests are invited to a celebratory preview of Abbas Akhavan: Variations on a Garden. Akhavan’s first US museum survey spans 20 years of the artist’s exploration of human relationships to the natural world, public and private space, and the conservation of heritage sites in sculptures and installations made from materials including soil, water, and plants. Your membership helps the Walker present ambitious exhibitions like this that invite deeper reflection on art and the world around us.
