Erica DiBenedetto is a curator at the Chazen Museum of Art at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, USA and a specialist in modern and contemporary art. She earned her Ph.D. from Princeton University, where she wrote her dissertation on Sol LeWitt. She is beginning to develop a book project based on that research, which focused on how LeWitt redefined the relationship between artist and audience in his work by treating architecture and language as complementary, rules-based systems. Her published essays on the artist can be found in edited volumes such as Locating Sol LeWitt (New Haven: Yale University Press, 2021) and Sol LeWitt: The Well-Tempered Grid (Williams College Museum of Art, distributed by D.A.P., 2012). At the Chazen, she organises exhibitions and helps care for a collection that includes objects dating from antiquity to today from around the world.
This public program is presented by The Concentric Influences of Sol LeWitt project in partnership with Metasenta and RMIT Gallery.
The Sol LeWitt Wall Drawing is generously loaned by the LeWitt Family and Estate.
