In an illustrated artist talk on Saturday, June 27th, from 1 to 3 pm, ArtPod member Diana Smith will explore disrupted realism. This rich art genre is not simply a kind of art acting as a bridge linking realism to abstraction but art that deserves ‘a room of its own’. What is the potential for disrupted realism to challenge how we see the world and ourselves? What can disrupted realism offer that realistic depictions of the world cannot? Come and take part in this lively talk and discussion. Free. Registration not required.
