Gallery Talk: Eva Hesse Drawing

Artist Eva Hesse worked at a time when the visual vocabularies of Minimalism and Conceptualism ruled the art world, yet she challenged these conventions in her highly experimental work. Elisabeth Sussman, co-curator of the exhibition Eva Hesse Drawing, uses the Walker’s gallery of Minimalist works as a backdrop for her discussion on Hesse’s reinterpretation of the movement’s language in both her drawings and sculptures.
