Meaning in Contemporary Painting (Ages 18+)

Searching for meaning in your artistic life?

This workshop will help you find it with a slide presentation and discussion of topics in contemporary art, including NFTs, AI, originality, cancel culture and more.

After the discussion you will alter an existing work of art and change its meaning. Bring a painting, your own, your friend’s, or one you’ve found at a thrift store and use any material to change the meaning of the original work. The idea is to make a work that has significance in today’s culture by altering a work whose meaning may be missing or is outdated.

Supplies:

A work of art to be altered. All other supplies will be provided.
