Papers of Lorraine O’Grady, 1952-2012

Wellesley College Library

The Papers of Lorraine O’Grady ’55 have become the first major acquisition of alumnae papers to enter the Wellesley College Archives. The Papers are an extensive record of life and work and include, among others, exhibition records, art notebooks, audiovisual materials, writing drafts, correspondence and personal journals. The whole extends to 65 linear feet and eventually will be supplemented by digital files from 1990 to the present. Contact info for the Papers is on my website. The Finding Aid may be downloaded at the Wellesley College Archives.

Roundtable Discussion w/ Lorraine O’Grady
October 3, 2013 @ 6:30pm – Fales Library, NYU

Should activist and/or situation-specific art be re-performed? Can the myth of performance, conveyed in images, video and critical reviews, be as, or more powerful than physical experience of the work? What is the role of the archive? These questions and others will be considered in the context of the O’Grady archive at Wellesley College. Joining Radical Presence artist Lorraine O’Grady are Glenn Wharton, Art Conservator, Museum Studies, NYU; Lisa Darms, Senior Archivist, Fales Library; and Thomas J. Lax, Assistant Curator, The Studio Museum in Harlem.
Free admission, seating limited. Photo ID required for entrance to NYU Buildings.
