Kwan Fong Gallery Speakers Series: An Afternoon with Edward Goldman

Since 1988, Edward Goldman has been the art critic at KCRW, the LA-affiliated National Public Radio station, and host of the weekly program “Art Talk.” We are delighted to inaugurate the Kwan Fong Gallery Speakers Series with his discussion of the relevance of contemporary art to contemporary life and a comparison of the Los Angeles and New York art worlds.

Before immigrating to the United States in 1977, Goldman worked at the Hermitage Museum in Leningrad. From 1998-1999, he was the Arts and Culture Editor of “Life & Times Tonight” on KCET, the LA-based PBS television station. He has taught Russian art history at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena and seminar classes on art collecting at Otis College of Art and Design. An art consultant and curator for corporate and private clients, he contributes articles to numerous art publications, serves as a panelist, moderator and speaker for various museums and arts organizations, and is a member of the International Association of Art Critics.

Admission is free.
