Free Talk: The Radiating Image & 18th-Century Mexican Painting

Join us for a compelling presentation led by Curator & Department Head of Latin American Art from Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) Dr. Ilona Katzew.

Dr. Ilona Katzew specializes in Spanish colonial, modern, and contemporary Latin American art. She joined LACMA in 2000 as the museum’s first curator of Latin American art. Dr. Katzew established the museum’s first department of Latin American art and developed its collection of Spanish colonial art, significantly augmenting its modern and contemporary Latin American holdings.
