Stephen Powers, Language Artist
March 17, 2016 @ 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm
“I’m a visual cacophony kind of guy.”
Stephen Powers has been making art his whole life and it has been his sole occupation since 1999. His work has been shown at Luggage Store, The Philadelphia ICA, The Venice and Liverpool Biennials, repeated appearances at Deitch Projects and most recently Brooklyn Museum. As a Fulbright Scholar in 2008 Powers painted a love letter to the streets of Dublin and Belfast, which in turn led to having conversations with communities and translating them into visual communication in 11 cities. He has published 5 books including his newest publication compiling the last 6 years of global public art projects, A Love Letter to the City (Princeton Architectural Press 2014).
Come hear him speak about new work, old work, huge letters, and ICY signs in Brooklyn. Books and prints will be on sale.
