This panel is half of a two-part series on the career of painter Elizabeth Murray. Three contemporary artists, Robert Gober, Jessica Stockholder and Caroll Dunham, discuss the impact of Murray's work in a panel discussion moderated by curator Robert Storr. This program was recorded during Elizabeth Murray, MoMA's retrospective exhibition that took place October 23, 2005 - January 6, 2006 and was recorded for WPS1 on November 21, 2005 at the MoMA in New York.

Elizabeth Murray (American, b. 1940) belongs to a generation of artists who emerged in the 1970s and whose exposure to Cubist-derived Minimalism and Surrealist-influenced Pop inspired experimentation with new modes of expression that would bridge the gap between these two historical models. In this context, Murray has produced a singularly innovative body of work. Warping, twisting, and knotting her constructed canvases, she has given the elastic shapes of classic surrealism a space in their own image. The MoMA exhibition included approximately seventy-five paintings and works on paper (1 hour 20 minutes).
