Please join renowned art critic David Hickey & artist Darren Waterston in a provocative conversation on art, wealth, and patronage at DC Moore Gallery (535 West 22nd Street) on November 20, 6:30pm. The event will be co-hosted by Smithsonian’s Freer|Sackler and MASS MoCA and will celebrate the new book Darren Waterston: Filthy Lucre.

Currently on view at MASS MoCA (Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art) the piece and opens at the Smithsonian’s Freer Gallery of Art and Arthur M. Sackler Gallery in May 2015, where the original Peacock Room is permanently on view.
