Etel Adnan’s career spanned several decades and encompasses a wide range of media — including painting, drawing, tapestry, film, ceramics, and leporello artist books. Adnan was also an esteemed author of poetry and prose.
Inspired and moved by one of Etel Adnan’s artworks, curator Hans Ulrich Obrist felt compelled to seek-out the artist, and over the years a warm friendship flourished. In this HENI Talk, Obrist recounts his fascination with Adnan, and we get privileged access to one of their spirited conversations in her Paris home and studio.

I have just now learned of this amazing woman, I can't thank you enough! She is a treasure, glowing.

I first saw the Work of Etel Adnan in the Expo dOCUMENTA 13 2012 and I was completely taken away. I think she is a fantastic colorist and later I experienced that she is also a very big poet. She is opening new worlds for me and this is very important just now. Tanks.........................
