Talking About Art: Women Religious Artists in the Dubuque Area
September 4
Noon-1PM
Speaker: K Kriesel
Catholic sisters and nuns, also called women religious, working as professional artists have been uniquely distinct from secular and other religious artists both because they live in community and also because of their three vows: poverty, chastity, and obedience. Women religious artists had access to arts education before secular women, and went on to teach future generations. Each artist among them is distinct and yet shares the commonalities of religious life, influencing their local arts communities while also set apart from them. K Kriesel, local artist and associate of the Sisters of Charity, will provide a presentation on how Catholic nuns and sisters in the Dubuque area have helped shape the local arts community and what we can learn from their stories. All are welcome to participate in this conversation, as there is much to learn from this distinct group of artists.
Talking About Art explores themes in philosophy of art, art history, and more. Bring your lunch. We’ll provide cookies and coffee.
Free will donation, no registration necessary.
