On the occasion of Spotlight: Louis Fratino, The FLAG Art Foundation hosted a discussion with artist Louis Fratino and writer Robert Glück, moderated by FLAG Director Jonathan Rider.

The Spotlight series includes a new or never-before-exhibited artwork paired with a commissioned piece of writing, creating focused and thoughtful conversations between the visual arts and authors, critics, poets, scholars, and beyond. This iteration of the Spotlight features Louis Fratino’s painting The pure and the impure (2024), accompanied by a text by poet and writer Robert Glück.

The full conversation between Fratino and Glück can be viewed below.
