Damien Davis: Visiting Critic Lecture

Join Anderson Ranch Arts Center for a Visiting Critic conversation with Damien Davis, a Newark-based artist and curator whose practice recontextualizes cultural symbols to explore and challenge ideas of identity and history. His work brings together imagery, materials, and references from diverse cultures, creating new connections and perspectives.

Davis has exhibited at leading institutions including The Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Arts and Design. He holds a master’s degree in Visual Arts Administration from New York University and brings a multidisciplinary perspective shaped by his work as both an artist and curator.

As part of Anderson Ranch’s Artists-in-Residence Program, Davis will provide critical feedback to resident artists and students, offering thoughtful insight into the development and direction of their work. During his visit, he will also share his practice and perspectives with the broader Ranch community through a public lecture.

Damien Davis’s Visiting Critic Lecture will take place October 28 from 4:30–5:30 p.m. in Schermer Meeting Hall. The lecture is free, open to the public, and available to attend in person or via livestream.
