Philemona Williamson Talk: Painting My Personal Journey

Purchased by the KIA in honor of Martha Parfet, Tender Breeze will be exhibited in the KIA lobby on the evening of the lecture. Often described as metaphorical narrative, Williamson’s work is collected by corporations and museums, and her public art adorns the walls of several MTA stations. She describes her art as an exploration of the psychological landscape of adolescence blurring the lines between race, gender and class. Prior to the lecture, there will be a short annual meeting to elect new directors to the Art League board. Light refreshments will be served following the program.
