The Clark Art Institute presents a lecture on Berenice Abbott presented by photographer Hank O’Neal in conjunction with the Clark’s exhibition Berenice Abbott’s Modern Lens. This free lecture takes place in the Clark’s Manton Research Center. Few people knew Berenice Abbott better than fellow photographer Hank O’Neal, who worked with her for the last nineteen years of her life. In this lecture, learn more about the fascinating woman behind the images from a man who knew her not only as a towering figure in the history of photography, but as a friend and mentor. O’Neal has authored several books about Berenice Abbott’s life and photography, and will soon release a memoir titled You’ve Got to Do a Damn Sight Better than That, Buster: Working with Berenice Abbott 1972–1991. Free. Accessible seats available
