Opening Night Reception: Saturday, June 11, 2011 from 7-10 pm
Opening at The Avenue 50 Studio is proud: Democracy and Art, a visual conversation of the role of art in a democracy. Thirty works were selected by curator, activist and art historian Carol A. Wells, who also serves as the founder and executive director of the Center for Study of Political Graphics. Chosen artists address the shifting meanings of freedom and equality, censorship and civil liberties. Using art as a vehicle for the discussion of political issues has a rich history, at times shrouded in censorship. Please join us as 23 artists converse on questions of democracy.
Presented by: The Southern California Women's Caucus for Art (SCWCA), one of 27 chapters of the Women's Caucus for Art, the leading national organization for women actively engaged in the visual arts. professions and an affiliated society of the College Art Association.
