SUMMARY:Explore Art with Jano (ONLINE)
DESCRIPTION:Join us with your curiosity and come ready to share thoughts and ideas. Our final session in the series about female artists and abstraction will present the work of Irene Rice Pereira\, whose crowded and often industrial looking compositions defied expectations about what female painters should depict during the first half of the XX century. \n\nAn acute observer and learner who channeled the most avant garde movements of her time Pereira experimented with form and medium to create striking and intricate artworks. \nJano Cortijo is a gay\, immigrant\, bilingual arts educator whose work finds him engaging audiences of various ages\, abilities\, and backgrounds in museums\, classrooms\, community centers\, or computer screens. Jano encourages critical discussion while connecting the participants’ individual histories and stories with the art and art makers. \nThis program is appropriate for people living with mild to moderate dementia and their care partners. A Zoom link will be provided to you in an email once you have registered for this program. \nFor more information contact our Active Living Program Coordinator Kristin Bartlett or call 416-389-6099 \n  \nPhoto credit: Irene Rice Pereira\, Landscape of the Absolute (1955); oil and enamel on canvas
