Art Studi-O Exploring Abstraction with Myron Solomon Jr. Session I

About this event

Thursdays, November 12th and 19th Join Museum Educator Myron Solomon to explore abstract collage inspired by the exhibition, In the Eyes and Mind of the Feral Child: The Art of Tom McNease. Using personal photographs and painted materials, participants will cut, rearrange, and layer familiar images to create something new. The class will explore both photo collage and peeled-paint collage, looking at how images and paint can be broken apart, shifted, and rebuilt through color, shape, and composition. What to expect: November 12: Abstract Photo Collage: Cut, rearrange and layer personal photographs to transform familiar images into an abstract collage. November 19: Peeled Paint Collage: Peel, cut, layer and rearrange dried paint pieces into an abstract collage. Supplies provided, but personal materials and meaningful found objects are encouraged.

A Dillard University BFA and School of Visual Arts MFA graduate, his work pushes beyond traditional New Orleans art while honoring its cultural roots.
