Celia Paul, curated by Hilton Als, at the Yale Center for British Art

3 April–12 August 2018

 

The Center will present an exhibition of work by the contemporary British artist Celia Paul (b. 1959) in spring 2018, the first in a series of three successive exhibitions curated by the Pulitzer Prize-winning author Hilton Als.

 

This exhibition, specially selected by Als in collaboration with the artist and a deeply personal testament to their transatlantic friendship, will focus on Paul's recent works, which will explore intimacy and inwardness. Als's subsequent installments at the Center will feature works of Lynette Yiadom-Boakye in 2019 and an artist to be selected later this year, who will be shown in 2020.

 

Hilton Als gave the Andrew Carnduff Ritchie Lecture, titled The Sea, The Sea, on Tuesday 3 April 2018.
