SUMMARY:Artist Meet-and-Greet + Catalogue & CD Signing with Nina Yankowitz and The Honourable Elizabeth A. Baker
DESCRIPTION:Artist Meet-and-Greet + Catalogue & CD Signing with Nina Yankowitz and The Honourable Elizabeth A. Baker\nJoin us for an exclusive opportunity to meet acclaimed artist Nina Yankowitz during the opening of her new exhibition\, Nina Yankowitz: In the Out/Out the In. For over six decades\, Yankowitz has pushed the boundaries of contemporary art through her experimental\, multimedia\, and feminist practice. \nAt the same time\, meet The Honourable Elizabeth A. Baker\, new renaissance artist and visionary behind the MFA’s original album Sound In Your Eyes\, inspired directly by Yankowitz’s work. Both artists will be present for a special signing event—pick up a copy of the exhibition catalogue and the newly released CD\, and have them signed by the creators themselves. \nDon’t miss Sound In Your Eyes | Listening Session on Thursday\, July 10\, a one-night-only live performance of selections from the album—presented in the gallery alongside the artworks that inspired the music. \nArtist Meet-and-Greet + Catalogue & CD Signing with Nina Yankowitz and The Honourable Elizabeth A. Baker \nSaturday\, June 21\, 2025\n2:00 PM–3:00 PM\nMFA Conservatory\nMuseum of Fine Arts\, St. Petersburg\n255 Beach Drive NE\, St. Petersburg FL 33701 \nOpen to the Public \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. \nABOUT THE HONOURABLE ELIZABETH A. BAKER \nThe Honourable Elizabeth A. Baker is a new renaissance artist known for her boundary-defying\, ever-evolving practice that resists easy categorization. Her work spans sound\, performance\, visual art\, and film—often incorporating custom instruments\, original notation systems\, and experimental technologies. \nA master of sonic exploration\, she performs on “The Spaceship\,” a complex instrument system featuring modular synthesizers\, motion-sensitive controllers\, theremins\, toy pianos\, found objects\, and her custom 6’2” amplified zither\, Black Moon Lilith. \nElizabeth’s visual works have been shown in galleries and international film festivals\, and her acclaimed series FIELD STUDIES and AGGRESSIVE PILLOW TALK received support from the State of Florida and were central to her fellowship at the Harvard Radcliffe Institute (2021–22). \nHer work\, which encourages deep listening and reflection\, challenges traditional narratives and centers the idea that all things exist with essence beyond human definition. \nRecognized globally by scholars and press alike\, Fanfare Magazine and I Care If You Listen have both hailed her as “the Pauline Oliveros of her generation.” \nImages: \nNina Yankowitz\, Ms. Majesty\, 1970-71\, Acrylic compressor spray on canvas run through pleating machine.
