Scene and Unseen: A Conversation on History and Identity through Contemporary Landscapes

with LUAG Museum Educator, Cassidy Rubio '24

This tour focuses on the use of landscape art as a mechanism for social commentary. How does contemporary art challenge the traditional canon? In what ways does unpacking that history explore identity?

RSVP in advance here.

She is interested in exploring the way in which cultural and societal influences impact the creation of art and the work itself. In her free time, Cassidy enjoyed reading and creating art.
