About the Duncan Phillips lecture series
The Duncan Phillips lecture series was started in 1987 by Laughlin Phillips (Director of the Phillips from 1972 to 1992) in honor of his father, Duncan Phillips, the founder of the museum. Lectures are given by distinguished artists, historians, and critics, whose presentations cover a broad range of aesthetic concerns. The series has been an enormously important part of the intellectual life of the museum and of Washington, nationally recognized for its creative breadth and intellectual depth in inspiring individuals who have made innovative strides in the visual arts and its scholarship.
