Susan Myers Lecture: Exhibiting Visual Artist & Metalsmith

SUSAN MYERS LECTURE: EXHIBITING VISUAL ARTIST AND METALSMITH

Center for the Arts, Lecture Hall, Room 2032

Thursday, October 13, 6:30 p.m.

Myers explores the concept of “value” through transformation utilizing the language of metalsmithing and the methodology of the consummate craftsman. She often employs reclaimed sheet metal from manufactured silver-plated serving trays engraved and stamped with decorative motifs to create her artworks. Myers’s works demonstrate a sophisticated wit, and their elegant forms contrast with their mundane subjects, presenting fascinating works of art that ask each of us to consider the detritus of our daily lives—what we consume and what we throw away—and, what we hold of value.

Admission is free.
