Before its annual art book and 'zine fair takes over the building later this week, MOCA Cleveland hosts an insightful discussion with Jose Carlos Diaz, chief curator of the Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh, at 7 tonight. Diaz was recently included on Artsy's list of the "20 Most Influential Young Curators in the United States," and is currently working on his first solo museum show, an exhibition of work by Iranian artist Farhad Moshiri. Before joining the Warhol Museum, Diaz served as curator of exhibitions at the Bass Museum of Art in Miami Beach and worked at the Tate Liverpool and the Liverpool Biennial, as well as the Rubell Family Collection. During his visit to Cleveland, Diaz also will participate in four studio visits with local artists. Admission to tonight's talk is free. (Josh Usmani)
