New York, NY | Author Talk: “The Blonde with the Balls: An Insider’s View of The Art World” with Patricia Hamilton

ArtTable is thrilled to present a book talk with trailblazing gallerist Patricia Hamilton, a longtime member of the ArtTable community, at Bortolami in Tribeca. Her memoir, The Blonde with the Balls: An Insider’s View of the Art World, recounts stories that only a figure as inimitable as Hamilton could have collected in a voice that is singularly her own. We’ll follow her riveting recollections of life and work as one of the few women and self-made professionals who emerged onto the scene fifty years ago – and transformed it irrevocably. From the Whitney Museum and Art in America to her eponymous Hamilton Gallery – where she championed Louise Bourgeois, Grace Hartigan, Deborah Remington, Joan Snyder, and many other artists – Hamilton has cut a unique path and shares a perspective no one else has on the art world. Jessica L. Porter, Lila Harnett Executive Director of ArtTable, will moderate the discussion.

Please note that registration for this event does not include a copy of the book. Books will be available at the gallery for purchase and signing.

Seating will be available during this event. Please note that Bortolami’s main entrance is a two-step entrance from the street; the elevator-accessible entrance is directly to the left of the steps. The third-floor event space is primarily accessed by stairs, but there is an onsite elevator that can be used as needed.
