Themes and Styles in Soviet Arts
Carol Veldman Rudie presents a lecture about Soviet era art, when artistic methods and topics were employed to shape the Soviet citizen.
Artists experimented with these issues and forms to tell another story about their cultural environment. Veldman Rudie shares how these different streams provided a nuanced picture of artistic conflicts and visual interactions that were part of this period of art.
This is the first lecture from a series of four topics that Veldman Rudie will present at the museum.

Call for art -DISMANTLING SYSTEMS OF OPPRESSION
For the 2020 installation of WTF!, we are seeking submissions in a wide range of media from traditional media such as painting, printmaking, drawing, and sculpture to quilting, clothing, photography, embroidery, installation, illustration, graphic design, and protest materials, that explore the idea of dismantling systems of oppression .
In keeping with the history of WTF!, artworks that center feminist concepts are welcome. However, this year’s exhibition seeks to cast a wider net by specifically highlighting works that address the many ways that various and/or intersecting power systems work to dehumanize and erase traditionally marginalized individuals and communities.
WTF! 2020 seeks to create a space for centering and inviting dialogue around the concepts of justice, presence, and power.
