UCLA Department of Art Lectures: Alan Sonfist

  • to This is a past program

Alan Sonfist is an artist and designer who engages with natural landscapes to evoke the hidden narrative of the earth. His “Time Landscapes” in Greenwich Village, New York, won critical acclaim for their innovative use of urban spaces as havens of nature and green art. Today he continues to promote sustainable energy and strives to raise awareness of global climate change with his international projects. Recently, Sonfist collaborated with Green City Planners in Pori, Finland, and Tampa, Florida, to create green public spaces.

The UCLA Department of Art’s visiting lecture series is made possible through the generous support of the William D. Feldman Family Endowed Art Lecture Fund.

All Hammer public programs are free and made possible by a major gift from the Dream Fund at UCLA.

Generous support is also provided by Susan Bay Nimoy and Leonard Nimoy, the Simms/Mann Family Foundation, The Brotman Foundation of California, Good Works Foundation and Laura Donnelley, and all Hammer members.
