Guggenheim A to Z comprises a series of intimate conversations that explore topics central to the Guggenheim and the landscape of modern and contemporary art at large. Covering concepts you may come across during your exploration of the Guggenheim, such as nonobjectivity, social practice, identity, performance art, Process art, spirituality, and globalism, these tracks are intended to provide a deeper understanding of the museum’s history and collection. Each episode features the voices of two staff members from departments across the institution, including archives, conservations, communications, curatorial, education, public programs, and the performing arts. The resulting conversations shed light on the museum’s past, present, and future from perspectives you may not have encountered before. This series originated during the Covid-19 pandemic, which prevented visitors and museum staff from coming to the museum and physically engaging with the art for many long months. The interviews were recorded remotely and with the intention of bringing art and culture to the listener, offering inspiration and solace at a time when we need it most. Find a copy of the catalogue “Guggenheim A to Z” at the museum gift shop to learn more about these concepts and others that are essential to the Guggenheim.
