The following interview is with Sasha Giordano, director and co-curator of the latest exhibition at the Hofstra University Museum of Art, “Les Visionnaires: In the Modernist Spirit.” It has been lightly edited and condensed for clarity.

The Hofstra University Museum of Art is a place you’ve most likely passed at some point on your way to class, whether you’ve seen one of the 75 outdoor sculptures, the Emily Lowe Gallery near Bits & Bytes or the David Filderman Gallery in Axinn Library. If there’s any point in your Hofstra career to visit the Museum of Art, now is the time. The museum is currently proudly celebrating its 60th anniversary in the current exhibition, titled “New Prospectives: The Museum of Art at 60.”
