What is an Artist Talk? It’s a presentation during which an artist speaks in depth about their work, medium(s), process, and influences. Audience members (whether in person or online) have an opportunity to ask questions and speak with the featured artist.

 

In 2022, Art Center East hosted a series of in-person and virtual Artist Talks, utilizing generous grant funding received from Oregon Humanities. These Artist Talks are now available online! View a recording or download an audio-only MP3.

Artist Talk: addie delong
Art Center East presents Wall Paper, an exhibit featuring work from Bend-based artist Addie DeLong. Excerpts of her past are displayed as soft pinks and pastels that resemble the walls of generations past, more specifically, her grandparents’ home. Upon her final visits, emotions flooded as she realized these spaces were an important piece of her childhood. DeLong uses acrylic paint and paper to depict her nostalgic memories involving color, time, and family.
The exhibit was on display from September 10 - October 23, 2021.
