Artist Talk with Chuck Close

Chuck Close’s portraits are amazing to look at. Their large scale, extreme closeups and the innovative technique that changes everything once you step closer make Close one of the country's most prominent contemporary artists around. The amazing fact that he has been paralyzed since 1988 and is still painting make his accomplishments ever more awe-inspiring. Come with your little art lover to meet him in person as he signs his new children's book, Chuck Close Face Book, and talks with the audience about art and life. Preregistration is required. Free.
