With a unique, insider perspective, Roger White, artist, design faculty at RISD, co-founder of the art journal, Paper Monument, and now author helps us navigate through the blurred lines of today’s perspective on art and what that actually may mean.
Join us at Edgewater Gallery as Roger White reads excerpts from his insightful, new book followed by Q&A and a book-signing. Light refreshments will be served and examples of works by the contemporary artists he profiles in The Contemporaries: Travels in the 21st Century Art World will be presented.
Andrew Russeth of ArtNews remarks “comprehensive, clear-eyed books about the art world are few and far between…Roger White’s The Contemporaries: Travels in the 21st Century Art World is a vital addition to that short reading list…The Contemporaries is particularly strong when confronting two of today’s most pressing contemporary issues: that there’s more art being made than ever before, and that it’s increasingly difficult for artists to make a living in places where they will actually get exposure.”
