BABSON COLLEGE
friday, oct 22.
Drawing from the Skeleton. 6 pm-8pm. Trim 215.
Artist in Residence Danielle Krcmar will teach students basic drawing techniques using the
skeleton as a model. Students will first learn how to make quick study “gesture” sketches and
then develop a longer drawing to learn about proportion and composition.
This workshop is free and all materials will be provided.
This workshop is cosponsored BFAA and Sorenson Center for the Arts.
Microclimates: Mixed Media Art by Alison Williams. 10am-7pm. Hollister Gallery and Exterior
Ongoing until October 29.
Alison grew up in New Zealand, currently has a studio and garden in New Hampshire, and
attended art school in Scotland. With the influence of her father's greenhouses, Alison has
created glass houses for biology to overlap with
creativity. Alison Williams is a 2009 recipient of the
Joan Mitchell Foundation Award.
The gardens and plants are inspiration for art making.
Canvases are buried and rot, paintings are made
outdoors in the rain, soaked flowers create delicately
colored "Juices", while leaves, stems, and seeds are
both stencils and collage materials layered over
"unnatural" paint, stickers and found materials.

by a discussion with the author and director about the book and film. The book is the first
monograph on Eisenberg’s work, and places his films in the context of contemporary theory
and experimental media practice, with contributions from highly respected writers on
contemporary film and media art.
An award-winning documentary, Persistence is a feature-length experimental portrait of Berlin
in the years following the fall of the Berlin wall and the end of the cold war. A meditation on the
time just after a great historical event, the film explores what is common to such moments, the
continuous and discontinuous threads of history.
