Elemental - Visiting Artists and Scholars

Painter and Animator Jennifer Levonian

Lecture

8/23, 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

Elemental: Earth Air Fire Water
Art and Environment

An 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)>
