An ArtWrite Conversation

Alexis Rockman and Jenny Offill:
Responding to an Uncertain Future

Join acclaimed painter Alexis Rockman and award-winning novelist Jenny Offill for a conversation about how art can confront the environmental crisis. Through contrasting approaches—Rockman’s monumental, scientifically-informed paintings visualize ecological transformation, while Offill’s intimate, fragmentary prose captures how climate anxiety infiltrates everyday life—both artists offer powerful perspectives on our changing world. ArtWrite’s Maggie Levine will moderate this timely discussion about creativity in the face of uncertainty and how art helps us process, imagine, and respond to our rapidly transforming planet.

Admission to the event is free but reservations are encouraged.
RSVP by 6/25 to: artwritedaily@gmail.com
