Internationally celebrated for his formally inventive fiction, Everett is less widely known for his painterly practice. Yet painting and drawing have long been central to his artistic life. In dialogue with Naomi Beckwith, Everett will reflect on the interplay between literature and visual art. Beckwith’s multidisciplinary curatorial approach, grounded in close collaboration with artists and expansive thinking about context and display, offers a compelling counterpart to Everett’s cross-genre practice.
