Indigenous Visions: Native American Glass Artists Create
Show #250
Talking about the art and science of working in glass to represent themes from indigenous cultures while combining the techniques of glass making with traditional art forms. Our guest artist will help us explore how modern art can be combined with cultural art to help advocate on behalf of indigenous people. We will look at the traditional role of art in indigenous culture, how art becomes central to the objects being created, and how glass objects become more than just utilitarian.
Guests
