You’ve heard of speed dating, now there’s speed lectures. The concept is simple: five brilliant minds have just five minutes to get their ideas across in lightning-fast speed lectures. The topic? 1950. Not only was it a hugely significant year for artist Hans Hofmann, but it was a fascinating time in art, culture, film, music and politics too. Join Mark Brown, Rich Fisher, Ken Neal, John Springer, Teresa Valero and John Wooley for this lively event as they capture the zeitgeist of 1950 at breakneck pace.

Schedule for evening:

6-7pm: Cash bar available and photographer on site for your chance to be a part of our new ad  campaign.

Just in time for Valentine’s Day, Museum Educator Susan Green will take visitors on a closer look at two works in the Philbrook collection that celebrate love. The tapestries The Toilette of Psyche and The Marriage of Psyche and Eros illustrate a tale of passion and marriage that echoes from ancient Greece, to eighteenth-century Europe, to twentieth-century Tulsa.

With Nicole de Armendi, Visiting Assistant Professor of Art History at the University of Tulsa, explore the masterful and highly varied prints from the 20th century in the Gussman collection.

1950 was a pivotal year in the history of art – and Hans Hofmann was at the center of the action. With exhibition curator Catherine Morris, explore the influence, experience, and expression of abstract artist and visionary Hans Hofmann.
