In-person
09/25/2023, 11:00 am–11:30 am
Meet at the George Washington statue

Join Art Historian Dr. Adair Rounthwaite to view and discuss Wangechi Mutu’s The Seated IV.

Wangechi Mutu is an artist based in New York and Nairobi whose collage-painting, sculpture, film, and performances often use composite female forms to explore gender, race, and art history.

At nearly 7 feet tall, The Seated IV first graced the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s facade in September 2019 as part of a commission titled The NewOnes, will free Us. In January 2021, one of these four storied bronze sculptures was installed at the north side of the Hans Rosling Center for Population Health 

Meet at the George Washington statue, near the Henry Art Gallery, Meany Hall, and Odegaard Library.
