CURRENT:LA FOOD

ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Independent curator and CURRENT curatorial advisor Diana Nawi moderates Learning from LA, a panel discussion featuring CURRENT artists and programmers. Each artist, whether LA based or having never visited LA before, began their project with an idea and perhaps even a hypothesis about food, art, community, and the city itself. These artists speak about their experiences learning about and from LA. This conversation focuses on the artists' research into and previous engagement with the city and the ways in which LA revealed itself to them over the course of their project. How did these discoveries inform and challenge their projects as they progressed? Each artist discusses their ideas and expectations, the surprises they encountered, and the lessons they learned. Capacity is limited; RSVP preferred, space given on a first-come, first-served basis.
