ARTISTS OF INSTAGRAM VIRTUAL CONVERSATION

Hosted by the Bruce Museum in Greenwich, “The Artists of Instagram: Everything You Always Wanted to Know and Aren”™t Afraid to Ask,” is a Bruce Presents virtual webinar Thursday, March 4 from 7 to 8:30 p.m. It will showcase four artists who have not only built substantial followings on Instagram, but also represent a revolution in terms of how we define what makes someone a successful contemporary artist.

The artists include Daisy Collingridge whose draped and tufted sculptures serve as evocative representations of the body and soul; Lauren Ko, a baker whose visually exquisite edibles challenge traditional definitions of art itself; actor-filmmaker Sarah Ramos whose teenage pursuit of celebrities grew into a provocative visual meta-commentary; and artist-musician Láolu Senbanjo whose breathtaking take on Afromysterics caught Beyoncé”™s eye. These artists are singular in their approach and collectively representative of a generation for whom Instagram is a key element of their practice.

The program will be moderated by Bruce Presents co-producer Leonard Jacobs; a Q&A session will follow. Admission is free for museum members and $20 for nonmembers; students receive a 20% discount. To register, visit brucemuseum.org or call 203-869-0376, ext. 311.
