Mobile Art Talk

Written by: Glenn Robertson Elizabet Elliott and Lucy Gafford
  • Summary

  • Arts enthusiast Glenn Robertson sits down with two arts professionals, Elizabet Elliott, and Lucy Gafford, once a month to talk informally about different arts topics happening in our community or in the greater art world. The subjects are broad, and we often get lost in the very tall weeds of art history, but hopefully you'll enjoy getting lost with us.

  • Photography as Art: A Very Incomplete History
    Jul 6 2021

    This month, Glenn, Lucy, and Elizabet, wander through a very abridged version of the history of photography and attempt to summarize the importance of this medium as an art form. Big questions include, "What makes a good photograph?," "How can photography retain it's value in the age of social media?," and "What is real?" We can't answer any of that, but we invite you to listen to us try.
