[email protected] What is the relationship between painting and sculpture in today’s world? Closer than ever or uneasy bed-fellows? Is it even necessary to differentiate them? The presentations will highlight how the line previously separating these two disciplines has been blurred by each of these artists. The discussion will investigate shifts in medium, output, and conceptual underpinnings encompassing object-making, studio practices, life experiences, and more. And of course…donut muffins will be served.
