Tipton Hall 6pm
$10 general admission | $5 students/seniors/members
Jennifer Levonian is a Philadelphia-based artist who creates cut-paper
and watercolor animations that explore the ambivalence of everyday life
by focusing on things which go unnoticed and transforming them into bizarre
and uncanny events. Her animations move through the land and landscape
with a sensitive eye looking sideways at how we fit (or don’t) into
the world around us. More>

Exhibition
6/4 Opening Reception, SFAI 5-7pm, free
6/4 - 8/27, 9am-5pm MF, SFAI, free
This year,
as part of the 2010 Visiting Artist Lecture Series, the Santa Fe Art Institute
has invited artists who focus on environmental awareness, presenting art
as a vehicle for individuals, communities and leaders to address environmental
concerns. The SFAI’s goal is to reveal the variety of approaches
and range of innovations that artists are currently using in conjunction
with their creative, scientific and community collaborators. The SFAI
hopes that by sharing artists’ sensitivity to the plight of the
planet we can promote a deeper understanding and connection to our natural
world. We will focus on artworks created by artists concerned with the
state of our environment both locally and
globally. More(pdf)>
