The Walker and Charles Ray have decided to postpone this event until it can be presented as a live event at the Walker at a future date. We apologize for any inconvenience due to this change. Paid ticket holders will be reimbursed.


Making the commonplace strange is central to the work of Los Angeles–based artist Charles Ray. Redefining the boundaries of sculpture since the 1980s, his subversive and painstaking style has shifted over the past 20 years to a figurative approach paired with highly technical strategies of fabrication. In this lecture, Ray weaves together sculptural art, its creation, and its meaning in civic space and time.
