SUMMARY:Art & the Family Archive | The Persistence of Family with Diana Cheren Nygren
DESCRIPTION:Date: Saturday, December 13, 2:00 – 3:30 PM\nEvent: Artist Talk and Workshop\nCost: FREE\n\nGenerously funded by the Framingham Cultural Council. \n\nJoin Diana Cheren Nygren for a talk about breathing new life into the family archive at a time when photographs are everywhere but the traditional family photo album is disappearing. What can we learn about ourselves from our history? It is a well known cliche that ancestors worked and acted in hopes of building a better future for their descendants. But what does this mean once the possibility of a better future all but disappears? Does that change our relationship to the past as well as the future?\n\nAttendees are encouraged to bring copies of family photos (not originals, and high quality is not necessary) both from their own family archive and their present family members for a hands-on art project. The more photos you bring in each category, the more options you will have when building your own collaged work.\n\nDiana Cheren Nygren’s visual practice has centered around using photographic images as a starting point for building and imagining stories that have not actually happened in order to explore contemporary issues.\n\nFor questions or more information please contact Claudia Ruiz Gustafson, FHC Programs Manager at claudia@framinghamhistory.org\n\n\n
