Clarice Smith Distinguished Lecture Series with Roberto Lugo Wednesday, September 14, 6:30 p.m. ET. Join artist Roberto Lugo in person or online for a vibrant discussion as he details his studio practice and the intersections of identity, representation, empowerment, and storytelling in his work. Lugo adorns classical pottery forms with portraiture and surface design that incorporate his North Philadelphia roots and hip-hop culture to address themes of poverty, inequality, and racial injustice. "Roberto Lugo: A Village Potter" is the first of three 2022 Clarice Smith Lectures presented by the Smithsonian American Art Museum. |
