Conversations about art and art institutions worldwide

Critical Voices is an ongoing lecture and discussion series dedicated to the spirit of one of America’s most noted 20th century art critics, Clement Greenberg. Critical Voices brings nationally and internationally recognized artists, curators, historians, critics, and theorists to Portland to engage our community in lively conversations on the nature of contemporary art practices and the role of artists and art in contemporary life.

The series is sponsored in part by the Paul G. Allen Family Foundation.
