MacArthur Foundation Fellow Rick Lowe will be lecturing at the Birmingham Museum of Art at 7 p.m. Lowe is currently the Breeden Scholar in Residence at Auburn University, and an artist whose unconventional approach to community revitalization and socially-engaged art has inspired artists across the country. Originally trained as a painter, Lowe shifted the focus of his artistic practice in the early 1990s in order to address more directly the pressing social, economic, and cultural needs of his community.
This is a free event. For more information, visit www.artsbma.org.
