Description

TAMPA, FL — On Saturday, Dec. 5, the USF Contemporary Art Museum, part of the USF Institute for Research in Art in the College of The Arts, invites art lovers to an online closing reception and artist conversation to wrap up its first major virtual exhibition, "Life During Wartime: Art in the Age of the Coronavirus." Participating artist Richard Mosse will join USFCAM Curator-at-large Christian Viveros-Fauné to talk about Mosse's newest project Double Blind. This herculean artwork takes global warming as its subject. The artist traveled to the Amazon to examine both "sites and processes of environmental crimes through the prism of orthographic multispectral reflectance imaging." The conversation will take place inside the artist's New York City studio and will include the virtual presence of Mosse's close collaborators, filmmaker Trevor Tweeten and composer Ben Frost.
