Focus Series on the Vitality & Importance of Learning Through Contemporary Art
Starting this fall, the Tarble will be re-envisioning the idea of the artist’s lecture by presenting a new series of gallery-based discussions that highlight and reveal the innovative practices of artists by re-focusing art as a living thing and artists as agents of choice. These artist-driven moments will move beyond the traditional talk and work to create an interactive and dynamic experience between the artist and participants, while investigating the purpose, intentions and narratives that drive these innovative creators and their creative practices.

BY SAMANTHA SCHWEBLIN
Thursday, November 5 , 5-6pm

On the surface Fever Dream by Samanta Schweblin is a story about a mother and her relationship with her child. Schweblin quickly turns this narrative on its head as she weaves in small town/big farm conflicts, mysticism, and magical thinking. Join us for a lively evening as we pull apart all these threads in the narrative and connect them back to the art on view.

GALLERY 1104 ARTIST-IN-RESIDENCE:
ANNE VIEUX
Tuseday-Saturday, September 24-28, 2019
In Conversation artist Anne Vieux will use Gallery 1104 as a pop-up working studio during her residency week during Tarble open hours. During the residency, she will co-facilitate three workshops with high-school-aged students and have her studio open for visitors on Saturday during EIU’s Family Weekend.
Vieux’s artwork combines digital processes with painting processes and explores the effects of light, scale, and materiality through abstraction. Her process involves scanning holographic paper then pushing the limits of the image data through zooming, warping, and repetition. Vieux is an alum of EIU’s MA in Studio Art program.
