Lectures by distinguished professionals representing the best thinking and innovation in art and museums today are a mainstay of the museum’s educational programming. The museum presents two to three guest lectures annually.
November 15: The Bechtler Museum of Modern Art presents a lecture by architect Dion Neutra on November 15 at 7 p.m. In 1929, Viennese-born architect Richard J. Neutra rose to prominence with his visionary design of the Lovell Health House. The ensuing decades would solidify his place as one of the giants of the modernist architectural movement. Working alongside his father, Dion Neutra forged his own architecture career carrying on the Neutra legacy, eventually becoming partner and principal in Richard and Dion Neutra, Architects and Associates. Since Richard J. Neutra’s death in 1970, Dion has carried on the firm’s philosophy, serving as executive consultant to the nonprofit Neutra Institute for Survival Through Design. The lecture is free for museum members.
