SUMMARY:How NYC Became the Art Capital of the World
DESCRIPTION:After World War II\, the center of the art world shifted from Paris to New York. It is here that new modern art styles and movements were born\, such as Abstract Expressionism\, Minimalism\, Conceptualism\, Color Field\, and Pop Art. Many artists from Europe migrated to New York\, seeking new opportunities. In addition\, American artists such as Jackson Pollock\, Sol LeWitt\, Mark Rothko\, Alex Katz\, and Roy Lichtenstein emerged onto the art scene and were central to these movements. Hear consultant Scott Verchin discuss how New York’s museums are collectively evolving into becoming the world’s leading cultural institutions for fine art.\n\n\nAdvance registration is appreciated.

SUMMARY:Latin American Moderism
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this informative program on Latin American art at Fairfield Woods Branch Library in Fairfield. \n\n\nThe 20th century was a period of tremendous artistic innovation\, political change\, and social transformation in Latin America. Latin American artists explored issues native to their local contexts while engaging and contributing to avant-garde art movements that developed internationally. Throughout the region\, there was a push and pull with ideas\, styles\, and techniques coming from Europe and the United States. Artists maintained strong ties and sentiments to their own nations\, while experimenting with and adapting international avant-garde styles. \n\n\nBusiness consultant Scott Verchin will help us explore this growing\, and often understated\, region of the world by showcasing artists and movements from Mexico to Cuba to Chile who have made an impact on the global art scene.
