BAM Thursdays at CMA
|
|
On Thursday, July 20, 5 - 11 p.m., the Columbus Museum of Art's BAM (Bar Art Music) Thursdays initiative will feature Armando Román, an interdisciplinary Latinx artist whose work incorporates themes of religion, homosexuality, community, and the metaphysical self. Get a sense of Román's style here.
"The Mexican landscape, both cultural and literal, is of particular interest to Román. He creates work to better understand his own relationship with Mexico, which is simultaneously familiar and foreign to him. Familiar, in that countless stories have been retold to him of this place, where his mother and father were born. Foreign, in that he has no permanent relationship with it."
BAM Thursdays are free, and no ticket or reservation is required. The event also features DJs and exhibitors/vendors. Find additional details here.
