Mapping Change: Norwood Viviano artist lecture and conversation with special guest Beth Lipman

Taking data visualization into another dimension, Norwood Viviano utilizes a variety of mapping techniques to create sculptures that tell stories of American cities, industry, and change. Surrounded by his solo exhibition in the Brunnier Art Museum, Viviano will provide insights into his deep research methods and the use of computer modeling, printing technology and engineering in his creative process. After Viviano’s lecture, fellow artist Beth Lipman (renowned for glass still-life compositions, including those in the exhibition closing soon at the Christian Petersen Art Museum) will join him for a unique opportunity to hear two nationally recognized artists discuss how they engage similar processes in completely different ways and the importance of knowledge- sharing and accessibility in artistic creation.
