Young art lovers and families joined us for Virtual Art Talks for Kids and explore artwork and artists from current and past exhibitions.
Talks were led by Strathmore Exhibition Coordinator Gabrielle Tillenburg and special guest artists. Kids met the artists, learned about their work, and asked questions in real time!
Moerland is featured in our previous exhibition, Shake It Out: Mandi Moerland. Her artwork captures the movement and grace of dance in paintings and drawings.
Sorrells was featured in a solo exhibition, The Railroad, at Strathmore. He uses painting and printmaking to explore the stories of African Americans typically left out of US history textbooks. His imagery drafts narratives that, while fictional, stand for stories untold.
Shana Kohnstamm was featured in the 32nd Biennial Exhibition of the Creative Crafts Council at Strathmore. Her soft sculptures are created using an ancient method of shaping and firming wool called felting.
Lorenzo Cardim was featured in Timber at Strathmore. His work expresses themes of social injustice and how LGBTQ+ people, people of color, and other groups question the status quo. His sculptures often incorporate contrasting materials, such as nail polish and stitching on wood, and he also works in video and performance.
Melinda Fabian creates sculptures from paper illustrated with watercolor and gouache. Melinda, who exhibited in Paper Works, joined us to discuss her process.
You may remember Francisco Rosario’s work from our exhibition Timber. Join us as he talks all things woodshop and welding.
Alanna Reeves works in print and paint, on paper and fiber. Join us as she talks about her work in our Past Process exhibition.
Join us for a peek into Emon Surakitkoson’s process.
