Artists as Reconcilers
Jan 19th, 2006 by Doug
The International Arts Movement (IAM) is having its 15th Anniversary Conference, Artists as Reconcilers, Thursday, February 23rd to Saturday, February 25th, 2006. Artists as Reconcilers will include lectures, workshops, performances, films, and much more. Some of the content in this conference is not to be missed. It will be communicated by some of the leading minds in the arts in Christendom. For example, National Endowment for the Arts, Chairman Dana Gioia and Yale Divinity School Professor Miroslav Volf.
There will be some great performances. One of the top 5 writers/arrangers/musicians will be doing a concert Rob Mathis. Rob is the worship leader of Trinity Church in Greenwich, CT. Along with him will be Will Lee (bassist for the David Letterman band), Shawn Pelton (drummer for the SNL band), and the entire horn section used by the Rolling Stones. They will all be at the concert. Also, Andy Zipf will be playing. He is a favored musician on XM Radio.
For visual artists who attend the conference there will be an opportunity to participate in a gallery show juried by some local NYC artists but also by two particularly important gatekeepers in the arts. Josie Browne, director of the Max Protetch Gallery in NYC and James Elaine, UCLA’s Hammer Gallery project curator will be part of the jury.
