I had the chance to speak with Professor Alexander Nemerov in front of Jackson Pollock's Lucifer at the Anderson collection. Our conversation was made possible because of Stanford's commitment to its wonderful collection of art and highlighting professors, and students, like myself, working in the humanities.
As one of my first conversations with Professor Nemerov, this was an incredible learning experience, tracing threads of thought inspired by the textured canvas before us. We talked about the capacity of art viewing as a meditative practice and had the chance to hear a bit of the history of this artwork.
