Visual Art: New Ways of Seeing

“Visual Art: New Ways of Seeing,” Friday, June 17 @ 6:30pm: Presented in partnership with Art Center Sarasota, two acclaimed visual artists discuss their creative process and share examples of their work. Hermitage Fellows Aram Han Sifuentes and Amanda Williams create in two different mediums of art. Han Sifuentes, whose work has been described as having “radical power” (The Guardian), works with fiber and materials. Williams, a visual artist trained as an architect, uses color in bold and energetic ways. At the center of both of their artistic practices is the mission to change the way we see the world around us and forge new communities in shared spaces. Registration is required at HermitageArtistRetreat.org ($5/person registration fee). The Beach at Hermitage Artist Retreat, 6630 Manasota Key Road, Englewood, FL 34223.
