Photographic Arts Council Los Angeles (PAC LA) presents “Photography Meets Sculpture” with Eve Schillo on Wednesday, June 10, 2026, at 7:00pm, at the Beverly Hills Public Library. The LACMA curator will lead an in-depth lecture exploring the relationship between photography and sculpture.
Schillo will offer an early preview of her forthcoming exhibition, “Photography Meet Sculpture: Talking about Photo Hybrids” (working title), highlighting contemporary women artists who incorporate lens based work with sculpture. The exhibition is scheduled to tour Southern California beginning in Summer 2027 as part of LACMA’s Local Access initiative. PAC LA’s free, in-person event at the library (444 N Rexford Dr., 2nd Floor, Beverly Hills, CA 90210) is part of its 2026 Year of Innovation series. Advance registration is highly recommended.

In her lecture, Schillo will explore contemporary approaches to photo-hybridity and the increasingly fluid relationship between photography, sculpture, and installation practices. The exhibition concept references the landmark 1970 exhibition “Photography into Sculpture,” organized by Peter Bunnell for the Museum of Modern Art, while reconsidering those ideas through a contemporary lens. The presentation will examine how artists today continue to expand the material and conceptual possibilities of photography.
PAC LA’s 2026 theme, Year of Innovation, explores how photography has been rooted in innovation since the medium’s inception. Through conversations, lectures, and public programs, the series examines innovation from both historical and contemporary perspectives, considering how artists, curators, and institutions continue to expand the possibilities of photography today.
