From the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston website–”On opening day of the exhibition Beatriz González: A Retrospective, artist Beatriz González engages in a dialogue with co-curators Tobias Ostrander and Mari Carmen Ramírez. The discussion focuses on González’s artistic practice, which spans six decades, and her first large-scale U.S. retrospective.

Based in Bogotá, the internationally celebrated Colombian artist is one of the few living representatives of the “radical women” generation from Latin America.

The conversation is presented in Spanish with live translation.”

Thanks to Beatriz, Tobias, Mari Carmen, and James, for allowing us to film the talk. Thanks also to the MFAH staff, especially Trey Ferguson, for their help recording this talk.
