Visiting artist Tim Liddy will hold a workshop from May 31st to June 3rd. Tim received his MFA at Washington University in St. Louis, and he is currently an Associate Professor of Art at Fontbonne University. Tim is an accomplished craftsperson and an elegant draftsman, who has constructed an oeuvre that deals with process, appropriation, and a nuanced understanding of art history. With his recent paintings, he has both reasserted the construct of hyperrealist painting and developed a thoroughly unique advancement of that mode by extending the objecthood and the cultural reality of the indexed original.
