Event Details

Join City Lights and Ars Citizen in celebrating French conceptual artist Sophie Calle in a rare appearance and reception celebrating her forthcoming show at the Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture in San Francisco.

Mary Kaye Schilling writes: “Over the course of her 38-year-long career, Sophie Calle has established herself as one of France’s most celebrated conceptual artists. In her work, she has attempted to metaphorically seduce her father; she once asked 107 women to respond to an ex-boyfriend’s breakup email; and for a story in T’s culture issue, the 63-year-old artist showed up to have her portrait taken pregnant — pregnant with a cat.”
