Ground Floor: Seattle Art in the 80s and 90s
The final program in the three-part Ripple Effect series, this presentation will revisit the recent history of contemporary art in our region, as told by those who helped shape it in the 1980s and 90s.
Inspired by Mary Ann Peters: the edge becomes the center, join us for a discussion featuring Peters, curator Larry Reid, artist Norie Sato, and museum director Laura Millinun, as they cover treasured stories of the early days of some of Seattle’s most beloved art spaces and people, and reflect on how they have shaped the present.
This talk is part of Ripple Effect: Northwest Contemporary Art Then and Now, a larger series of conversations centering artists practicing in the Pacific Northwest and the history of the art community that has shaped today's contemporary arts scene. Register for the full series.
Mary Ann Peters: the edge becomes the center is organized by Alexis L. Silva, Curatorial Assistant.
