One of life’s not-so-simple treasures is the ability not just to experience art but to experience the way artists negotiate their lightning-strike moments of inspiration and the ways in which they overcome obstacles that could cloud their vision.
Multi-disciplinary artist Megan Solis’ latest vision has become reality in the group exhibition “In Our Image: Photography as Performance,” organized by the McNay Art Museum’s Curator of Collections Liz Paris and curatorial fellow Leslie Wooden. The artist is offering a gallery walkthrough to explore the show’s underlying premise: the fluid identities, transformations and performativity inherent in photography — specifically portraiture.
This free experience promises a behind-the-scenes look at a thought-provoking exhibition along with an opportunity to discuss works with others looking for a deeper insight into the visual arts. Advance registration required.
Free, 6-7 p.m. Thursday, June 5, McNay Art Museum, 6000 N. New Braunfels Ave., (210) 824-5368, mcnayart.org.
