Alejandro Torrens art

Here is another taste of what to expect at the Savor Lawrence: Local Food + World Art. Dominican artist Alejandro Torrens will be one of the artists creating art specially for our event in a LIVE, performance art exhibition.

In the words of Art Historian William E. Mierse from the University of Vermont, "Torrens is a member of a new generation of artists coming out of the Caribbean region. The art of these painters often has roots in surrealism and expressionism, but the works themselves show individuality of thought. Torrens is comfortable working with the figure or with abstraction, but in both instances he is concerned with giving form to the human condition. His art is tied to human experience. He tries to illustrate a meditation on the voyage that is life. He aims to capture specific moments in that voyage. He often does this by using color, colors that emerge from the background, becoming richly saturated units that the begin to fade at the edges."

You will not want to miss this. Remember Early Bird Ticket pricing ends on February 29th!

We are so excited to have him join us. Here he is in a past performance:
