Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts

Rising Sun artists Martha Jackson Jarvis, Dyani White Hawk, and Wilmer Wilson IV, join Monument Lab Director Paul M. Farber in a conversation that introduces strategies of site-specificity in art created in dialogue with the city, its monuments and architecture. Artwork created for a specific site registers and makes visible new meanings and untold histories of a place. This program offers an opportunity to learn about the rigorous work and imaginings of contemporary artists at the forefront of this practice. Presentations by each artist will be followed by a discussion and Q&A. 

Registrants for this event are invited to experience PAFA’s installation of Rising Sun: Artists in an Uncertain America before the panel, from 5:00 – 5:50 pm.

The panel, Artists In Dialogue With The City, is sponsored by The Brodsky Center at PAFA.
