Artist Talk: PAT DUFF

Please join us for legendary Detroit artist Pat Duff as she discusses her exhibition TRANSITIONS: A JOURNEY FROM BIRTH TO DEATH.
“Transition: A Journey from Birth to Death” not only encompasses about 50 works produced over approximately 60 years. It also offers Duff’s insights to the challenges and joys encountered over an eventful life, not only as an artist and entrepreneur but also as the longtime caretaker of a husband who endured a protracted, ultimately fatal, case of Alzheimer’s disease.
“I choose to exclude no part of my life, of life itself from my art,” Duff explains in an artist’s statement. “The world is a hard place, littered with poverty, hatred, and ugliness of many kinds.” But, she continues, “I see the beauty in everything, even where others see only the ugly. My art, and I hope this is true, brings this perception to the many, all of the people, for them to see for themselves.”
