Lunchtime Art Talks take place every Wednesday at 12:30 p.m. The Hammer's curatorial department leads free and insightful 15-minute discussions about works of art currently on view or from museum collections. This talk will be led by Connie Butler, chief curator. Butler will discuss the work of Sterling Ruby, whose work is held in the Hammer Contemporary Collection, and discuss the reasons why his series of tables are included in Made in L.A. 2016.
