WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. —On Saturday, July 26 at 1 pm, the Clark Art Institute presents the first installment in the Ground/work 2025: A Close Look discussion series. 

 

In these events, through guided conversation and reflection, participants consider how each artist's work is in active dialogue with the Clark's natural environment.

 

On July 26, a Clark educator leads a close examination and in-depth discussion around the outdoor sculpture Gathering My Thoughts by British artist Laura Ellen Bacon. Using willow branches that are tied, looped, and woven together, Bacon's process evokes basket-weaving and the nest-building of birds. This event meets at the Lunder Center at Stone Hill.
