And he loves sweets\, especially the traditional dessert laddoo. But when Ganesha insists on biting into a super jumbo jawbreaker laddoo\, his tusk breaks off! Ganesha is terribly upset\, but with the help of the wise poet Vyasa\, he learns that what seems broken can actually be quite useful after all. With vibrant\, graphic illustrations\, expressive characters\, and off-beat humor\, this is a wonderfully inventive twist on a classic tale.

SUMMARY:In Conversation | Nina Yankowitz and Katherine Pill
DESCRIPTION:In Conversation | Nina Yankowitz and Katherine Pill\nDon’t miss this last chance to experience the special exhibition Nina Yankowitz | In the Out / Out the In and hear from Nina Yankowitz herself. In conversation with the MFA’s Senior Curator of Contemporary Art\, Katherine Pill\, Yankowitz will discuss her groundbreaking\, six-decade career and the behind-the-scenes making of this landmark retrospective.\n\nThroughout her career\, Yankowitz has consistently challenged the boundaries of medium\, perception\, and accessibility. This talk will delve into key moments in her practice\, including her role in the Heresies Collective\, her commitment to women-centered narratives\, and her fearless experiments with form and media.\n\nTogether\, Yankowitz and Pill will explore the exhibition’s themes\, offering personal insights and stories that bring new depth to the works on view.\n\nIn Conversation | Nina Yankowitz and Katherine Pill \nSunday\, September 21\, 2025\n1:00 PM–2:00 PM\nMuseum of Fine Arts\, St. Petersburg\n255 Beach Drive NE\, St. Petersburg FL 33701 \nFree with cost of admission \nGET TICKETS \nNot yet a member?\nBecome a member today and enjoy all the benefits membership at the MFA offers!  \nMFA Members enjoy free admission for an entire year\, early access to special exhibitions\, discounts at the MFA Shop and Café Clementine\, special member-only exclusive events\, and more. Bring the whole family! \nBECOME A MEMBER \n\nABOUT NINA YANKOWITZ \nThroughout a career spanning six decades\, Nina Yankowitz (American\, b. 1946) has created a multidisciplinary practice that defies singular definition. Her work pushes against traditional boundaries: her paintings have resisted not just frames\, but seemingly gravity; her abstract compositions have gone beyond the canvas to embrace the aural. Most recently\, Yankowitz has deepened her interest in technology and new media to create immersive environments that spotlight women-centered histories that have gone unknown for far too long. \nNina Yankowitz was born and raised in New Jersey and lives between New York City and Sag Harbor. Her works are in public collections\, including the Fine Arts Museum of San Francisco\, San Francisco\, CA; Virginia Museum of History & Culture\, Richmond\, VA; and the Smith College Museum of Art\, Northampton\, MA. Her archival materials are found in the Archives of American Art\, Smithsonian Institution\, Washington\, D.C. Her 2022 solo exhibition at Eric Firestone Gallery garnered reviews in Artforum and Art in America\, and in 2024 she was inducted into the New York Foundation for the Arts’ Hall of Fame. \nImages: \nNina Yankowitz\, Ms. Majesty\, 1970-71\, Acrylic compressor spray on canvas run through pleating machine.
