Artist Talk with Jay Stern and Sayantan Mukhopadhyay

In celebration of Jay Stern's second solo exhibition with NOON Projects, "Slow Opening," please join us for a conversation between the artist and Sayantan Mukhopadhyay, Assistant Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art at the Portland Museum of Art in Maine.

Stern and Mukhopadhyay both moved to Maine after several years on the west coast. They look forward to discussing their new home, legacies of New England art histories, and queer perspectives in contemporary American painting. Stern's work is currently on view at the Portland Museum of Art in "As We Are," a group show curated by Mukhopadhyay on view through April 27, 2025.

Mukhopadhyay received his MA and PhD in Art History from UCLA. His current research interests include the politics of friendship, queer futures, and expressions of kinship in global contemporary art.
