https://www.eventbrite.com/e/an-evening-with-ursula-von-rydingsvard-film-screening-into-her-own-tickets-796026746427Thank you for joining us for this very special event as we celebrate Women's History Month. Organized in conjunction with the 2023-2025 exhibition supported by the C. Ludens Ringnes Sculpture Collection at Harvard Business School, this event will feature a film screening of the 2019 documentary Into Her Own. Movie snacks will be served.
About the Documentary:
Ursula von Rydingsvard: Into Her Own is an artistic biography of one of the few women in the world working in monumental sculpture. Von Rydingsvard’s work has been featured in the Venice Biennale and is held in the collections of some of the world’s great museums, including New York’s Museum of Modern Art, the Art Institute of Chicago, and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. She may be best known for work in public spaces – imposing pieces painstakingly crafted (usually from cedar), with complex surfaces. In this documentary, we go behind the scenes with von Rydingsvard, as she and her collaborators – cutters, metalsmiths, and others – produce new work, including challenging commissions in copper and bronze. The film also delves into the artist’s personal life, and how it has shaped her work.
Organized by the HBS Art Program and HBS Connects and supported by the C. Ludens Ringnes Sculpture Fund at Harvard Business School.
