Art Fwd: Abigail DeVille, in conversation with Jordan Jones

Jacob Lawrence Gallery Join artist Abigail DeVille and curator Jordan Jones for a public conversation centered on the artistic process of transmuting national myths and monuments into potent sites of public remembering, reckoning, and dreaming.
