March 19, 2024 by Robin

April 21, at 11:00 AM 

Join Dr. Marc Fasanella (son of self-taught social realist painter Ralph Fasanella) for an illustrated lecture that introduces the viewer to socially-engaged, perceptive, panoramic, narrative oil and acrylic paintings created by luminary artists of the Twentieth and Twenty-first centuries.

Holding a PhD from NYU in Art and Environmental Design, Marc was a Professor of Architecture, Art, and Ecological as well as Graphic Design for more than three decades before leaving academia to found an environmental non-profit. He has also worked professionally as an art director, curator, and design build specialist in wood and landscape.
