Public Tours At Walker Art Center

March tours at the Walker Art Center offer a chance to see the latest exhibition, Paper Trail: A Decade of Acquisitions (opening March 15). Paper Trail addresses the means by which artists today are exploring notions of time, place, and narrative through the intimacy of paper, and highlights works acquired by the Walker within the last 10 years, including many pieces that have never before been exhibited.

Tours are also available for Kara Walker: My Complement, My Enemy, My Oppressor, My Love (through May 13), the artist's first full-scale American museum survey, featuring her signature cut-paper silhouettes, film animations, and works on paper; and Body Politics: Figurative Prints and Drawings from Schiele to de Kooning (through July 15), featuring works from public and private collections that explore the expressive potential of the human figure in images taken from the first half of the 20th century.

On Saturday, March 3, as part of the Walker's Free First Saturday, patrons can take part in a gallery crawl to discover how artists Shiraga Kazuo and Bruce Nauman use paint and video to record their bodies' movements. Also offered in March are tours of the Walker's ongoing exhibitions and Spotlight Gallery Talks led by Walker curators and tour guides highlighting selected artworks or artists in the galleries.

Gallery admission is $8 adults; $6 seniors (65+), $5 student/teen (with ID), and free to Walker members and children 12 and under. Admission is free with a ticket to a same-day Walker event, $4 with a ticket stub up to six days after an event. Gallery admission is free to all every Thursday evening from 5-9 pm and on the first Saturday of each month. -- www.walkerart.org
