The Easel: with Xolani Sivunda

While  every Easel event is special, this one has some extra oomph behind it.  This month, we're hosting Xolani Sivunda, a South African painter and  mosaic artist, who has traveled to the States for the very first time to  work with ART 180 this summer, co-leading our Atlas Artist Residency.

Xolani  creates vivid paintings inspired by the play of light and shadows  characteristic of Italian Baroque legend Caravaggio. However, Xolani  makes this inspiration his own by infusing it with color and  incorporating found objects into his work.

Come  out to the parklet on Thursday, June 20, to watch Xolani transform a  blank canvas in just two hours. 1115 Mobile Kitchen will join us to take  care of your lunch plans, while you sit back and become part of the  energy exchange between artist and audience at the Easel!
