Event Description

Join Jennifer Zwilling, Curator of Artistic Programs at The Clay Studio, along with ceramicist, social activist, and educator Roberto Lugo, as they discuss his exhibition, “God Complex: Different Philadelphia,” on view at the Arthur Ross Gallery at Penn. Lugo’s work utilizes classical pottery forms in conjunction with portraiture and surface design reminiscent of his North Philadelphia upbringing and Hip-Hop culture to highlight themes of poverty, inequality, and racial injustice. This program is co-sponsored by The Clay Studio and the University of Pennsylvania's Arthur Ross Gallery. Join the Zoom call to ask any questions and to listen in on the discussion!
