Join us in-person at Butler College for a conversation with the artist Odili Donald Odita and Museum Director James Steward. In 2009, Odita created a mural for the interior of Butler College that directly engages with the dormitory’s architectural facade. His color palette and composition aim to uplift students. The pair will discuss how Odita’s painting embraces the Princeton campus.
Reception and book signing to follow.
Following the program, the artist will sign copies of Odili Donald Odita, a comprehensive monograph that spans thirty years of Odita’s artistic practice, from his early mixed-media collages to his current painting installations and more.
This event is cosponsored by Butler College, Labyrinth Books, and the Princeton University Art Museum. Read more about Odita’s mural for Butler College in this 2009 article.
