[**Lost Number Two**](http://www.thelostlectures.com/events/lost-lectures-ny-number-two/?ref=hyperallergic.com) is less than two weeks away, and we’d like to share a couple of incredible announcements. ([**Get tickets here**](https://www.tickettailor.com/checkout/view-event/id/25480/chk/665c/ref/h3?ref=hyperallergic.com).)

## [Diana Al-Hadid](http://www.dianaalhadid.com/?ref=hyperallergic.com) will be joining our speaker lineup!

Contemporary artist **Diana Al-Hadid** has continued to invent and reinvent visually distinct and compelling work that has received overwhelming international acclaim. With over 19 solo shows in the past nine years and an endless list of awards and inclusions in public collections, she continues to push limits in her transformation of materials.

Born in Syria and currently based in Brooklyn, Al-Hadid is recognized for creating monumental sculptures and panels that cross cultural and artistic boundaries. We’ll have the opportunity to hear her discuss and explore ideas of gravity, space, and caves, which align perfectly with the amazing venue location we will reveal next week.
