Artists At Large: Music and Art with Lonnie Holley

Legendary multidisciplinary artist Lonnie Holley has devoted his life to improvisational creativity. Spanning sculpture, music, poetry, video and more, his work invites contemplation, reflection, and awe. Like his sculptural practice, his music is an assemblage of genres—blending folk, jazz, blues, and pop sensibilities that are often both deeply personal and universally resonant.
While in the Seattle area, Holley will participate in residencies at Pilchuck Glass School and the Museum of Glass. This special program at the Frye offers an opportunity to hear how he is approaching this new body of work through stories and song, moving seamlessly between performances at the piano and discussions about art with Matt Arnett, Holley’s longtime friend and collaborator.
This event is part of Artists At Large, a new annual program at the Frye featuring conversations, performances, and presentations by nationally and internationally recognized artists participating in local residency programs, including Pilchuck Glass School’s.
