In conjunction with the Philadelphia Museum of Art’s current exhibition, Van Gogh Up Close (on view through May 6), a panel of contemporary artists will discuss the significance and influence of Vincent Van Gogh’s oeuvre on living artists at a special lecture held at the museum Friday evening, April 27.

Featured panelists include the one and only Zoe Strauss (whose photography exhibition, Zoe Strauss: Ten Years, is on view at the Art Museum through this Sunday, April 22), as well as local artist Emily Brown and Hiro Sagakuchi, a local artist and educator who also serves as the Museum’s art handler. Psst: stay tuned for a special Philly 101 video featuring one of these artists…

Together, they’ll engage in an informal conversation about why the great Dutch post-impressionist remains so influential to current artists.

Be sure to get your tickets in advance here.
