Artist Alison Saar is the subject of the latest film in Getty’s Artist Dialogues series, which engages L.A. artists in conversations exploring their art, materials, fabrication processes and working methods, as well as their thoughts on conservation.

Saar’s sculptures, paintings, prints and installations explore race, gender, heritage, and the human experience. Primarily taking the form of the female figure, her work highlights historical and cultural narratives related to diasporic experiences, hidden histories, and African American identity. In Alison Saar: Found Spirit (12:15) the artist reflects on the influences of her upbringing in L.A. during the rise of the Black Arts Movement, and her commitment to using humble, often discarded materials to tell poignant and important stories. Acknowledging the conservation challenges of these materials, Saar discusses how change brought on by age and interaction can bring new meaning to her work.

Following the screening of the film, the artist will be joined by the film’s director, Rachel Rivenc, Head of Conservation at the Getty Research Institute, to explore her work through the lens of its conservation, and to take questions from the audience, both in person and virtual.

Reception to follow for in-person attendees.

Artist Dialogues is part of the Getty Conservation Institute's<a href="https://www.getty.edu/projects/art-in-la/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> Art in L.A</a>. project.
