 ishman
DESCRIPTION:James Benjamin Franklin (CAA MFA Painting 2017) is joined in co
 nversation by Beverly Fishman who was Artist-in-Residence and Head of the 
 Painting Department at Cranbrook Academy from 1992-2019. The introduction 
 will be given by Andrew Blauvelt\, curator of  James Benjamin Franklin: F
 ull Circle and Director of the Cranbrook Art Museum. The conversation is c
 o-hosted by Martha Mysko and Willie Wayne Smith\, Co-heads of Painting and
  Artists-in-Residence at Cranbrook Academy of Art. Please RSVP using the f
 orm below.\n\nJames Benjamin Franklin (b. Tacoma\, Washington) is an artis
 t based in Detroit\, Michigan. His distinctive canvases push the boundarie
 s between painting and sculpture. Franklin received his BFA from Art Cente
 r College of Design\, Los Angeles\, in 1999 and his MFA in Painting in 201
 7 from Cranbrook Academy of Art\, Bloomfield Hills\, Michigan. His work ha
 s been featured in exhibitions at the Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft\, L

 nd Proyectos Monclova\, Mexico City. His work has been featured in Bomb Ma
 gazine\, Galerie Magazine\, Hyperallergic\, and the New York Times. The ar
 tist is represented by Reyes | Finn Gallery\, Detroit\, Michigan. \n\nBev
 erly Fishman is a multi-disciplined artist whose provocative\, visually el
 ectrifying oeuvre positions her as an authoritatively contemporary aesthet
 ic voice. Combining the handmade with the industrial\, Fishman employs a v
 ariety of techniques to explore technological\, scientific\, and biologica
 l systems of perception and representation\, instigating constructive conv
 ersations about the ways people see their bodies and minds\, and construct
  their identities. \n\nFishman has relentlessly sought out new materials a
 nd processes in order to realize her evolving vision. Her materials list h
 as included traditional supports such as wood\, paper\, blown glass\, and 
 aluminum\, as well as more unconventional elements like cast resin\, mirro
 red Plexiglass\, powder-coat-ed metal\, and phosphorescent pigments. She a
 lso frequently uses mediums like chrome and urethane automotive paint that
  speak in conversation with the legacy of the Detroit area\, where she liv
 ed and worked as the Head of the Painting and Artist-in-Residence at Cranb
 rook Academy of Art from 1992 until 2019. \n\n [gravityform id="38" title
