Please join us for an artist talk with Chicago artist Paul Branton, whose work is featured in our "Illuminate" exhibit.
Branton was born in 1973 in Chicago. He was influenced at an early age by the sights & sounds of the South Side’s urban environment. Writing short stories & putting on plays with his sister quickly became a passion and a means of expressing himself. It was this passion that guided his education, which ultimately guided his career.
The talk will be facilitated by Erica Hubbard, Associate Director of Civic Relations and Partnerships at Art Institute of Chicago. Branton and Hubbard have worked closely together at the museum, and she has watched his art evolve over the years.
The number of guests will be limited so as to maintain social distancing. Guests will be required to wear masks.
