Seaside’s popular Escape To Create artist residency launches its 23rd season with the arrival of six artists selected from an international pool of applicants for the renowned creative retreat.
Seaside's 2014 Escape to Create performance season opens JANUARY 11th at 7:30pm at TheSeaside Repertory Theatre with a program featuring an artistic pairing of international art + awarded environmental journalism.
Mixed-media artist Jenny Krasner uses digital painting, photographic composites and drawing to create her unique form of visual ethnography that is housed in worldwide collections and exhibited in museums in China, France, and the U.S. Based on her experiences in the Middle Kingdom, Krasner will present her visually layered 'journal' created in response to the social, political, and environmental contradictions revealed during the process of rapid modernization.
WATER: The #1 environmental concern for most Americans. Florida Gold Medal Book Award author and national speaker Cynthia Barnett takes us on a tour from backyard waterfalls in California to sinkholes swallowing chunks of Florida in "Blue Revolution: A Water Ethic for America and Florida." How can the fresh water sources in the wettest state in the nation be disappearing? Barnett reports on inspiring, workable solutions practiced around the globe in this powerful meditation on water and community in America. Barnett's awarded books will be available for purchase and signing.
Tickets: $25 available online at the Seaside Rep Theatre,
850-231-0733 OR Amavida Coffee locations on 30A. Proceeds support Escape To Create Artist Residencies and The Seaside REP Theatre, Partners in Celebrating Artistic Excellence Through Exceptional Programs.
