Community Conversations through Art is a new three-part series where diverse artists are invited into the Museum to share selected pieces of their work with the audience as they talk about their art and process, and their involvement in their community. With time for questions at the end, guests will have the opportunity to have real conversations with the artists in an informal setting. This year's series features Brazilian artists.
Csekö’s work gravitates around conversations and experiments grounded on a paradigm shift from competitive to collaborative practices in social actions and interactions.
Transcending Borders - Immigrant Experiences and Dreams
This Participatory Public Art piece is inspired by a Brazilian custom, where people of all ages, backgrounds, religious beliefs, and nationalities come to the historical Church of Senhor do Bonfim in Salvador, Bahia, and tie a ribbon representing a wish on the fence surrounding the premises.
