Betye Sarr: Heart of a Wanderer

  • Falmouth Art Center 137 Gifford Street Falmouth, MA, 02540 United States (map)

Robin Joyce Miller will be speaking at the Falmouth Art Center’s in-person book talk about Betye Saar’s book, “Heart of a Wanderer.” A leading member of the Black Arts Movement, artist Betye Sarr’s (b. 1926) assemblages tell visual stories and convey powerful political messages. Her assemblages contain found objects—many of which she gathered on her extensive travels— that explore themes like mysticism, feminism, racism, and Eurocentric chauvinism.

The book contains in-depth invierviews with Saar and features essays about the impact of her work on art scholars. This presentation will include a slide show, suggestions for how you can be inspired by Saar’s work, and will end with a Q & A.
