Lynne Yamamoto and Alison Moritsugu
Layover Lecture: Sept. 29th @ 6 p.m., the ART Auditorium
Cosponsored by The Contemporary Museum
Yamamoto and Moritsugu are both participating in The Contemporary Museums Artist in Residence program this year. They will be doing site-specific works in June 2011 on the TCM grounds. These two internationally recognized, Hawaii-born artists join us to talk about their recent work. Both have become well known for considering the history of Hawaii and its altered landscape and arts traditions. Lynne Yamamoto will give us insights into her quietly evocative installations of crochet, embroidery, and porcelain ceramics. Alison Moritsugu will talk about her Luminist landscape paintings of edenic nature made on cut logs and her recent experiments with wallpaper decorated with repeating patterns of invasive species.
