SUMMARY:Genesis: Artist Talk & Gold Leaf Demo with Jane Cooper
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Wednesday\, January 28th at 1:00 PM for an artist talk and guided tour of Genesis\, a retrospective solo exhibition celebrating the work of Jane Cooper. This exhibition is presented in recognition of Jane’s Best in Show award from the 2024 Annual Members’ Exhibition. \nDuring the talk\, Jane will guide visitors through her printmaking journey\, beginning with her first monotype\, Girl with Apple (2004)—a tender portrait of her daughter—and tracing the evolution of her practice through to her most recent works created as a studio member at CCP. The tour offers a unique\, firsthand look at the ideas\, techniques\, and milestones that have shaped her artistic path. \nThe event will also feature a live demonstration of Jane’s gold leaf technique\, a distinctive element found throughout many of the prints on view in Genesis. This is a special opportunity to engage with the artist\, gain insight into her process\, and experience the exhibition through her perspective.
