Docent Art Talk: Revolutions Per Minute: A New Spin on Art & Music from the 60s and 70s, Presented by Jaye-Lynn Trapp

November 12, 2023 at 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Many people consider the 1960s and 70s a time of experimentation. Artists were experimenting with new styles – op art, pop art, surrealism, minimalism – and recording artists were experimenting with new sounds. Album covers became a new canvas to explore. Fine artists, musicians, and album cover designers all strove to put a new spin on their respective works.

Monthly lectures examine art and artists that have influenced the world, from the great classics of Europe to the art of the Southwest, to the most exciting trends in modern and contemporary art. The Museum will also be open on those days, so bring the family, enjoy the Art Talk, and then wander the galleries!

Art Talks are $5 for non-members; free for TMA members and students with ID.

The elevator to the Alice Chaiten Baker Center for Art Education is temporarily out of order. The building remains accessible through the entrance located on the south side of the building along Alameda, the door is labeled “166.” Please call 520-616-2692 for assistance.

Revoluciones Por Minuto: Un Nuevo Giro en el Arte y la Música de los Años 1960 y 1970

Presentado por Jaye-Lynn Trapp

Mucha gente considera las décadas de 1960 y 1970 como una época de experimentación. Los artistas experimentaron con nuevos estilos (arte óptico, arte pop, surrealismo, minimalismo) y los artistas discográficos experimentaron con nuevos sonidos. Las portadas de los álbumes se convirtieron en un nuevo lienzo para explorar. Artistas, músicos y diseñadores de portadas de álbumes se esforzaron por darle un nuevo giro a sus respectivos trabajos.

Tenga en cuenta que el elevador al Centro de Educación Artística Alice Chaiten Baker está temporalmente fuera de servicio. El edificio continúa accesible a través de la entrada ubicada en el lado sur del edificio a lo largo de Alameda, la puerta está etiquetada “166”. Llame al 520-616-2692 para obtener ayuda.
