Join Margot Norton, Associate Curator, at the West Village studio of Barbara Nessim, whose work was featured in a retrospective at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London earlier this year. Nessim was one of the first artists to seriously pursue digital art and one of few professional women illustrators in the United States during the 1960s, illustrating record album covers and magazine covers for major publications such as Rolling Stone, Time, and New York magazine. Her work has been exhibited at the Museum Kunstpalast in Düsseldorf, the Louvre, the Moderna Museet in Stockholm, the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, DC, and the Hungarian National Gallery in Budapest.
