Artist & Curator Conversation: Frank Jackson and Sarah Freeman

Artist Frank Jackson and curator Sarah Freeman discuss There/There, an exhibit of Jackson’s abstract landscape paintings. Using the medium of fresco, Jackson applies an intonaco (a thin, final layer of lime) to a burlap cloth substrate and then works within the durational constraint of this fast-drying material. Jackson is interested in exploring how abstract representations of landscape can be understood as sites of memory, experience, and potentiality.

Jackson’s work has been exhibited at Tang Museum at Skidmore College, Williams College Museum of Art, the Shed, Robert Blackburn printmaking studio gallery 20/20 in New York, and Vox Populi in Philadelphia, among others. He teaches studio art at Buxton School in Williamstown, Massachusetts. He has taught at Williams College and the Rhode Island School of Design and served as a dean at Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture. He holds an M.F.A. from the University of California at Davis and a B.F.A. from Virginia Commonwealth University.

This is an in-person event.
