Art History Lecture: Soft Light, Soft Boys ⟡ The Impressionists X Drake

Yesterday at 7:30pm · Austin

FREE ❤️ Art History X Pop Culture Lectures + Vinyl Giveaway ✨ Welcome to THE BREAKDOWN, where two Austin creatives explain the underlying intricacies behind influential art and music: covering everything from deep dives into Renaissance sculpture to nuanced takes on the best of pop culture 🎨🎧 ✨ Soft Light & Soft Boys: The Impressionists & Drake ✨ From June-July, the theme of our arts & humanities club is “The City,” Although at first glance, painters like Claude Monet may seem to have little in common with Aubrey Graham, these artists share a deep commitment to portraying urban life and the myriad complexities of being out in the streets. We’ll be discussing the politics of partying, bourgeois spectacle and leisure, urban alienation, and how Drake & the Impressionists reimagined Paris & Toronto. Sean will also be presenting on Drake’s oeuvre and the complexities of inauthenticity, vanity, and vulnerability. We’ll make mingling fun & easy with some lighthearted activities! Come join us to better understand the “Views” of these influential modern artists. Haters welcome! Fans too 🪭 ✨ Your Hosts For Artists Explain Art: Rachel & Sean ✨ Sean Saldaña is a KUT News reporter who has presented his archival research and oral storytelling at venues like Bass Concert Hall, in addition to appearing regularly on Austin’s public radio and formerly on NPR. A native Austinite and Texas Ex, Sean moonlights as a stand-up comic and is currently competing in Cap City Comedy Club’s ‘Funniest Person in Austin’ Contest. @ladybirdsean Rachel Summer Cheong holds an A.B. in the History of Art and Architecture from Harvard College. A multidisciplinary artist and cultural organizer, her work has been used by magazines like Vox and Verdict, as well as cultural institutions like the New York Philharmonic and local non-protits like Move Texas. She loves taking photos, going dancing, and organizing whimsical free events. @difficultfriends LaTesha Harris is a music journalist formerly at NPR, with upcoming bylines in several literary publications for her short fiction. She received her bachelor's and master's from the Medill School of Journalism, Media and Integrated Marketing Communications. Born and raised in Central Texas, she is interested in the intersections of culture and justice. Her work has taken her across the globe, having reported on entertainment in Los Angeles, immigration and cannabis racial justice in Chicago, gender-based violence in South Africa and the international student experience in China. When she's not in the newsroom, she is rollerskating, studying abolition, making playlists, baking and updating her Letterbox and Goodreads profiles. You can connect with her on Substack at https://substack.com/ @mercurialsurplus ✨ Event & Giveaway Details ✨ Join us at @darwinspub on Tuesday, June 23 for two short lectures on The Impressionists & Drake, followed by audience Q&A and an open mixer with the presenters. We’ll have art supplies on the tables & will be giving away Take Care & Views on vinyl to two lucky attendees. Audience members will also be able to vote on whose art they appreciate more: The Impressionists... or @champagnepapi?
