David Maisel: An ARTalk
Program: 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm
Wine served at 6 pm
David Maisel is an artist working in photography, painting, and video. His disquieting aerial photographs and large-scaled abstract paintings consider the aesthetics and environmental politics of open-pit mines, clear-cut forests, water reclamation, and rampant urbanization, and climate-change events such as drought and wildfire.
For this evening’s ARTalk, David will share his paintings and photography that speak to environmental issues and abstraction.
Maisel is the recipient of a 2018 Guggenheim Fellowship in the Creative Arts, which enabled his Desolation Desert project in Chile's Atacama Desert. He was a Scholar in Residence at the Getty Research Institute in 2007 and an Artist in Residence at the Headlands Center for the Arts in 2008.
He is a recipient of an Individual Artist’s Grant from the National Endowment for the Arts and was short-listed for the inaugural Prix Pictet Award in Photography. Maisel received his BA from Princeton University and his MFA from California College of the Arts, in addition to study at Harvard’s Graduate School of Design.
