Ballard Institute and Museum of Puppetry's Spring Puppet Forums
Wednesday, April 17 at 7:30 pm: “Women on the Verge: Visual Artists Approaching Puppetry”, with famed New York puppeteer and performance artist Theodora Skipitares. This talk will consider Kiki Smith, Kara Walker, Cao Fei, and Janine Antoni: women visual artists who “suddenly find themselves working with puppets, even though they often won’t admit that’s what they’re doing.” This forum is co-sponsored by the UConn Art + Art History Department, and the Women’s, Gender, & Sexuality Studies Program.
**Please note: “Women on the Verge: Visual Artists Approaching Puppetry” will take place in The Pit in the Art + Art History Building on UConn’s Main Campus. See this link for directions.**
