BAMPFA Art Talk: MAREN HASSINGER: Living Moving Growing

Maren Hassinger: Living Moving Growing, now on view at the Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive, is the most significant retrospective of the artist to date. Hear from exhibition co-curator Anthony Graham about Hassinger's work  across sculpture, performance, video, and installation from the early 1970s to today. Throughout her career, Hassinger has addressed social and cultural issues through an awareness of interconnectedness, ephemerality, and the relationships between humans and the natural world. 

 

Anthony Graham is Senior Curator at the Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive. Other recent projects include Object Oriented: Abstraction and Design in the BAMPFA Collection as well as solo exhibitions with artists Zeinab Saleh, Tanya Aguiñiga, and Young Joon Kwak.

 

The Garden supplied branch material for multiple sculptures that are on view in the galleries at BAMPFA, and collaborated in the building of the sculpture Monument (Pyramid) on the Garden's Oak Knoll. The exhibition runs through November 29, 2026.
