Description: ARTalk with Tom Brenner
Space in Art: Form and Metaphor
Sunday February 5, 2012

Tom Brenner, painter, will deliver a slide-illustrated talk about the importance of considering space in a work of art. According to Brenner, "the painter must be as concerned with the air surrounding his subject as with the subject itself." How may an artist covey space while conjuring the image, creating the very sensation of space? What are the profound implications of pictorial space - emotional, philosophical, and spiritual? In this visual presentation, a world of images representational and abstract historical and contemporary from around the world and from my own hands - will engage us in aconsideration of Space in two dimensional art, with its manifestations and ramifications.

Tom Brenner was born in Washington D.C. and grew up in Fairfield County, Ct. He received a Bachelors Degree in Fine Art from Yale University, A Master of Fine Arts Degree in Interdisciplinary Arts from Goddard College, and completed two years of training in Applied Arts at Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California. He has taught at the Silvermine School of Art for 14 years and lives with his family in Fairfield.
