Join our museum docents for a guided tour of "The Hilton Als Series: Njideka Akunyili Crosby."

This selection of six works by Njideka Akunyili Crosby (b. 1983), Yale MFA 2011, is the third and final show in a series curated by Pulitzer Prize–winning author Hilton Als and marks the first solo exhibition of a Yale School of Art graduate at the YCBA.

The tour will also include Interior Dialogues, an adjacent collections display of twentieth-century works that is inspired by Akunyili Crosby’s collaged portraits and interiors, and explores themes related to the body, domestic space, and the collage technique.
