Joan Snyder in conversation with Rachel Cusk in Paris Saturday 6 June 2026, 5—6pm

On the occasion of Joan Snyder’s first solo exhibition in France, Earthsongs, the artist will be in conversation with the acclaimed writer Rachel Cusk, who contributed an essay to the accompanying catalogue. The talk will be in English and moderated by the writer and essayist Lauren Elkin.

With her new paintings and works on paper, created over the last year, Joan Snyder continues and extends the ideas and motifs that have defined her practice over her career of six decades. Simultaneously ethereal and grounded, the works oscillate between the otherworldly and the visceral, reaffirming Snyder’s position as a pioneer of a vision of abstraction that is at once expansive and profoundly personal.
