Time:6:30-8 p.m.
Description:Art in Practice presents a talk by Aaron Baker, curator of the Playboy Collection, who delves into the specifics of his role as an archivist and advocate of original artworks by 20th-century icons such as Andy Warhol, Tom Wesselmann, Franz Kline, Salvador Dali and Alberto Vargas.

In addition to his job of curator, Baker is a working artist. His unique position in maintaining the legacy of the Playboy Collection's name makes him an extraordinary lecturer, allowing unique access to the often-unexpected occupations that exist in today's art world.

Art in Practice provides guidance and insight into the professional art world to students preparing for careers in the arts.
