Before his death in 2005, curator and Menil founding director Walter Hopps was working on his distinctive memoir, which has been completed and published by artist and writer Anne Doran and New Yorker fiction editor Deborah Treisman. Menil director Rebecca Rabinow will be in conversation with Treisman and Doran about this new book, which New Yorker writer Calvin Tomkins called “…a superb evocation of the art world he knew and loved, and a joy to read.” A signing follows and books will be available for purchase.
