How does German Expressionism relate to artists today? Join us in The Anxious Eye: German Expressionism and Its Legacy for a talk by artist LaToya Hobbs and exhibition curator Shelley Langdale. Through their bold, inventive art, the exhibition artists sought to interpret the dramatic changes in the world around them during the tumultuous historical period of 1900–1920, marked by world war and revolution. Hobbs, a painter and printmaker, explores complex themes of gender, race, and spirituality in a similar fashion to facilitate dialogue and challenge norms, creating works that are both universal and specific.
