SUMMARY:New Art Center presents Artist Talk: Marlon Forrester
DESCRIPTION:Dates: 4/14\nDetails: Thursday\, 1 Session\nTimes: 6:00 PM – 7:00 PM \nThe rise of NFTs has radically changed how we see the future of art. Painting\, drawing\, and sculpture must find ways to push into a space in which both spectacle and society embrace a new digital currency. Join Marlon Forrester for a conversation based on his reflections on stepping through the looking glass of traditional artmaking into a new reality of NFTs and the Metaverse\, reflections on his process and sale of his 1st NFT. \nAbout the artist: \nMarlon Forrester\, born 1976 in Guyana\, South America\, is an artist and educator raised in Boston\, MA. He is a recipient of the 2021 James and Audrey Foster Prize and his work is in the collection of the ICA/Boston. Forrester is a graduate of School of the Museum of Fine Arts Boston\, B.A 2008 and Yale School of Art\, M.F.A. 2010. He is a resident artist at African American Masters Artist Residency Program (AAMARP) adjunct to the Department of African-American Studies in association with Northeastern University. He worked previously as a painting lecturer at SMFA (2017-2019) and has shown both internationally and nationally. His current body of work explores how through media\, Pop Culture\, and advertisement the black male body is commodified through the sport of basketball. Utilizing his concept of “disequilibrium” he works to deconstruct the rites and rituals found within the game and life through his drawings\, paintings\, performance and large-scale installation.

SUMMARY:Newton Art Association presents: Demo with Betsy Silverman | Collage
DESCRIPTION:Working in a collage style that she calls “fragmented realism\,” Betsy Silverman trains her eye upon discarded magazines – which she selects\, cuts\, and glues to a canvas\, in order to transform the old images and text into unique\, multidimensional portraits\, still lifes\, cityscapes\, and representations of New England – especially the Boston area. \nA graduate of Cornell University and the Rhode Island School of Design\, Betsy holds a Master of Architecture degree\, and her work is infused with architectural sensibility – employing perspective\, light and shadow\, reflections\, or the scale of various elements\, so as to create a sense of depth and perspective. \nThe zoom link will be found here.
