Artist talk

October 1, 2016 | 3:00 pm – 5:00 pm

Join us in conversation at the Liliana Bloch Gallery to discuss Kathy Lovas’ solo show I’m So Gliché, her newest body of work created through malfunction, chat about the implied liberation from the historical perspective of monocular human vision, and converse on the translation of this idea into three dimensions. The event is free and open to the public.

                                                                                                                                                            

Liliana Bloch Gallery represents emerging and mid-career, regional, national and international artists working in a variety of media.
