Art : 21 Art in the Twenty-First Century
video/discussion series will be offered at Appleton Public Library
during the month of April. This series focuses on 21 contemporary
visual artists through conversations that explore their lives, work,
and sources of inspiration. Works incorporate the following media:
installations, music, storytelling, projected imagery, performance
art, film making, conceptual art, video art, photography, sculpture,
and painting. Although many of the works show evidence of influences
from an earlier time, they are decidedly "21st century"
in their scope. Each segment features a different theme: Place,
Spirituality, Identity and Consumption. The artists featured range
in age from their early 30s to their early 90s. Art 21 is not only
an introduction to contemporary art; it is a vehicle for critical
thinking and creative exploration. Participants should bring a photograph
to the first session that depicts themselves as children. Join us
for this provocative series! Elizabeth Eisen, Community Services
Librarian, will lead discussion. Registration requested at 832-1695.
