Cockeysville to Baltimore: Levester Williams

Center for Art, Design and Visual Culture artist resident Levester Williams was recently featured in all matters aside, a survey exhibition curated by Lisa D. Freiman. The exhibition featured a selection of works produced during Williams’s artist residency research into the histories and mythologies of Cockeysville marble, a material used in both the Washington Monument in Baltimore’s Mount Vernon neighborhood and the iconic exterior steps of local rowhomes. The exhibition was accompanied by a number of public-facing activities, including the publication of Cockeysville to Baltimore.

On Tuesday, April, 1, the CADVC presents a webinar featuring Levester Williams in conversation with sound designer Dan Shields, moderated by Lisa D. Freiman.

This online event is free and open to the public. Please register here in advance.
