These are not horses” and “Malaquias Montoya and the Legacies of a Printed Resistance” which also celebrate two art studio connections: alum Deborah Butterfield (art studio, B.A., ’71, M.F.A., ’73) and Professor Emertius Malaquias Montoya.

At 3:30 pm, Shiva Ahmadi and Malaquias Montoya will come together for a conversation, joined by  artist Marcos Ramírez ERRE whose “Toy-an Horse Model 2/5″ was recently acquired by the museum and will be on view. The “Personal & Political: Artists in Conversation” will be moderated by Abram Jackson, director of interpretation for the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco.
