Join us for an in-depth exploration of sex and eroticism in objects from the Rubin Museum’s permanent collection and Francesco Clemente’s Black Book. The tour begins examining the ideas of divine union with tantric pieces from the third floor exhibition, Masterworks: Jewels of the Collection. Culminating with the sixth floor exhibition, Francesco Clemente: Inspired by India, visitors will reflect on similarities and differences between Clemente’s work and the Rubin’s esoteric tantric art.
This special public tour will be running weekly on Wednesday evenings at 6:00 pm through November 19th.
