Wheaton’s 17th Annual Mary L. Heuser guest speaker, Joanna Grabski, Dean & Foundation Professor, College of Integrative Sciences and Arts (CISA) at Arizona State University, presents Dakar As Art World City. Dr. Grabski’s talk focuses on contemporary art and artists in Dakar, Senegal, a famously thriving “art world city”; highlighting how and why artists produce and exhibit their work and how they created an art scene by interacting with art world figures from near and far. She shows us that Dakar-based artists have local resonance in their city just as they have global reach.
