Panel Discussion 12/16/10



"FLOURISH" PANEL DISCUSSION:
Defining the Sublime with the artwork of Jennifer Davis, Erika Olson Gross, Terrence Payne, & Joseph Siness

Is there a line to be drawn between fine art and design? Is one inherently more valuable to our culture than the other? Does the world of fine art have any influence over how you view your world and the media you view it through? Join the artists of Flourish and the panel of experts they have invited in exploring the answers to these and many other questions regarding the roles of artists and designers in the wild west of modern media today.

Guest panelists for the evening are:
+ Burlesque of North America Founder MIKE DAVIS
+ MCAD Professor TOM GARRETT
+ Space150 Associate Creative Director JASON STRONG
+ bd'm Art Buyer KIM WITCZAK

Each of them will be sharing his or her professional expertise and unique insights on the show. MAEP coordinator Christopher Atkins will moderate the panel and open up the discussion to the audience. Feel free to jump into conversation and bring along your questions!
