Vito Valdez, Stories in Art and Culture, Painting, Collage and Mixed Media 215 229 Hannan Center

Beginning with a tour of galleries at the DIA,   participants learned from Vito about the physical making of a variety of work, the maker/artist and the story they left behind.  They toured several galleries at the DIA    and returned to Hannan for lunch and artist’s talk followed by discovery of self exercises and drawing of sketches to be used the following week. On November 16  participants returned for printmaking and milk painting.   Vito has been  living and working in Southwest Detroit for 30 years.   In addition to his own work as painter and muralist, he works in the education department at the DIA.   He has exhibited in the Kayrod Gallery, recently in a three artist exhibit in 2013 and in group shows.
