Artist Talk
The Hard Part is Silence: Herbert Pföstl in Conversation with Elia Haworth
Austrian artist, writer, and translator Herbert Pföstl will discuss his art practice and working with words. The conversation will reveal Pföstl’s influences and inspirations, including the explorations and testimonies of early, often anonymous, masters; the hallucinatory hieroglyphic drawings of Antonin Artaud; Pföstl’s obsession with farewells in American “revenant sounds” from the 1920s and 1930s; Melville’s "Pierre" and Albert Pinkham Ryder’s broken paintings; Simone Weil’s notebooks and Emily Dickinson’s fragments; and the inimitable works of Hercules Segers and Hans Jürgen von der Wense.
Free and Open to All - July 9Sun 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Courtyard Event
The Astonishing World in a Drop of Water with with Jenny Jacox and Janai Southworth
Join us to view the array of microscopic life found in a drop of water collected directly from Bolinas Lagoon. Jenny Jacox, PhD in Ocean Sciences, and artist/naturalist/educator Janai Southworth share their passion and deep knowledge as they provide a window into a surprisingly magnificent world with microscopes and monitor screens.
The mission of the Bolinas Museum is to collect, preserve, and exhibit the art and history of coastal Marin and to present exhibitions and events that provide inspiration and cultural enrichment to residents and visitors alike.
