Description

Join the Center for the Study of the American South for a conversation about the creation of memories in public space and the power of art in the public sphere. They will be speaking with two artists – Lauren Frances Adams and Jason Patterson – whose work critically engages and analyzes items and symbols created in the nineteenth century. Using their art as a focal point, they will discuss the power of art to encourage the public to think differently about the meanings conveyed, then and now, in site-specific settings.
