Art & Conversation: Art and Race Matters
Join the Zoom webinar at pam.to/AC or view it live on our Facebook page
Join our Arlene and Harold Schnitzer Curator of Northwest Art, Grace Kook-Anderson, in a discussion about Art and Race Matters: The Career of Robert Colescott. This exhibition is the first full retrospective of one of America’s most compelling and controversial artists, as Colescott’s work continues to be mired in controversy because of both Colescott’s blunt, aggressive—even crude—gestural painting style and his provocatively transgressive examinations of race and gender. The work’s relevance, and challenging nature leave us much to consider in this month’s talk.
