Art Viewing Adventures: How David Park Shaped the Bay Area Figurative Movement (Virtual)

Mon November 23, 2020 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm

  • « Dinner Show with John Tinloy (Virtual)
  • Cooking with Chef Lorraine: Gobble, Gobble! It’s Turkey Time! (Virtual) »

Join Rodney Paul, an experienced museum guide, for a discussion about David Park.

David Park pioneered the Bay Area Figurative movement in the 1950s, which is now considered the most significant single contribution of the Bay Area to 20th century American Art. Rejecting abstract art, the prevailing art style of the day, Park yearned for the warmth, liveliness and spontaneity, which he felt must be explored through the human figure.

The movement included other celebrated artists that he worked with, including Richard Diebenkorn, Elmer Bischoff and Joan Brown, whose art we will also touch on in our tour.  Rodney Paul will be joined by fellow museum guides Anna Ewins and Bernice Iwamoto to talk about Park’s place in the movement and discuss some of his most stirring images.

A great many Park paintings can be seen now in San Francisco museums.  Our discussion will help you mine them for meaning and give you questions to think about as you view them.

Rodney has been leading Zoom-based art tours long before shelter-in-place, as a way to share art from a distance. In his tours, he provides information to help viewers mine the artworks for meaning based on their own experiences and perceptions.

 

To join by phone, dial 888-475-4499 (toll free) or 669-900-6833 (local).
