Artist Karlito Miller Espinosa shares the inspiration behind a series of paintings that includes an exciting recent addition to the UAMA collection, "…Run as fast as you will, escape if you can, you are the quarry, fate is the hunter…"

Chelsea Farrar, UAMA Curator of Community Engagement, and Dr. Russ Toomey, Professor of Family Studies and Human Development, share their important work in this SXSW22 presentation.

Inspired by the painting Gothic Chapel from the UAMA collection, this short presentation by Dr. Susan Crane from the Department of History considers when and why "rubble" is transformed into "ruins," and what is at stake when memories of the past — invoked through ruins that would otherwise be seen as rubble — demand attention in the present.

The UAMA regularly hosts engaging art talks on a wide variety of topics, many in tandem with exhibitions on view. Enjoy these recordings of any you missed, or re-watch your favorites!
