Artist’s Panel Discussion: HIStory / HERstory: Whose Story?

The HIStory / HERstory exhibition critically examines the power of voice. It digs into the idea that the victors write history while other histories are ignored, deleted, denied, left out of the official record. Artists Margo Burian, Mary Fortuna, Todd Lininger, and Stephanie Schlatter approached these ideas from feminist, judicial, and mythologic avenues. The discussion, facilitated by GAAC Gallery Manager Sarah Bearup-Neal, will delve into how these artist use visual language to translate difficult subjects, and the psychic and emotional benefits of being able to speak through one’s creative work.
