Panel explores how artists respond to our environment

Posted

LIVINGSTON MANOR, NY — The Catskill Art Society will present a panel of local artists and public figures for “Arts and the Landscape,” a discussion of how art forms interact with and respond to our natural environment. The panel discussion will take place at the CAS Arts Center on Saturday, November 8 from 3 to 4 p.m. This event is free and open to the public, and donations will be accepted at the door.

This panel reveals how art and culture bring new dimensions of our landscape to the forefront through various viewpoints and media. In a mode very different from education or conservation, artists nonetheless explore deeply important themes with the freedom of creativity.

The panel comprises of Andrew Waggoner, artistic director of Weekend of Chamber Music; Mermer Blakeslee, author of the novel “When You Live By a River;” Robin Dintiman, sculptor; Carol Roig, Sullivan Alliance for Sustainable Development (SASD); Barbara Arrindell, Damascus Citizens for Sustainability (DCS); and Jennifer Edwards, Catskill Mountainkeeper.
