In my recent review of Complex Territory, the group exhibit currently showing at Parkland College’s Giertz Gallery, I talked about the power of artistic rumination, of considering a certain idea or technique over a significant span of time and work. Well, whether or not you’ve had the chance to see the show yet, I encourage you to make time for one or both of Giertz’ upcoming artist talks. Both are likely to help you dive deeper into the work, and the artists’ imaginations.
