A conversation about language and its shifting place in modern and contemporary art, WORDS/MATTER explores the relationships of language and text, the emergence of language as image, the processes of naming and thinking, and the presence of different linguistic codes in art by looking at works currently on view at MoMA. Artists to be discussed include Marcel Duchamp, Cy Twombly, Lawrence Weiner, Joseph Kosuth, Marcel Broodthaers, and others.

Ágnes Berecz (PhD, Université Paris I, Panthéon-Sorbonne, 2006) teaches modern and contemporary art history at the Pratt Institute and at The Museum of Modern Art.

Kathryn Chiong is a PhD candidate completing research on Lawrence Weiner in the department of art history at Columbia University. Currently she lectures for Adult and Academic Programs at MoMA.
