“You are Cordially Invited”: The Art and Influence of Robert Blanchon
In conjunction with the exhibition Downtown Pix: Mining the Fales Archives, 1961–1991
Laura Parnes, founder and former director of Momenta Art, and curator Sasha Archibald will explore Blanchon’s connections with artists and emerging trends in contemporary art. From parodies of the art world to AIDS agit-prop to cerebral, minimalist photography, Blanchon gleaned from art history to make his own interventions, and encouraged his students to do the same. Moderated by Amy Sadao, Executive Director, Visual AIDS.
