Artist Talk: Hilton Carter

Location: Walters’ Graham Auditorium

Plant and interior stylist, author, artist and Instagram sensation Hilton Carter will discuss his artistic practice and the importance of greenery in conversation with Jo Briggs, the Jennie Walters Delano Curator of 18th- and 19th-Century Art. This program will connect majolica, a ceramic form and design phenomenon from the Victorian era and often used to hold plants, to current modes of integrating botanicals in interior spaces. Following this talk will be a Q&A with the artist and a book signing.

This program is held in conjunction with the exhibition Majolica Mania, on view at Hackerman House at 1 West Mount Vernon Place through August 7.

Carter’s most recent title, Wild Creations, will be available to purchase from the Museum Store.

Please note that this program will be recorded and made available on our YouTube channel at a later date.
