WPW Monthly Members’ Meeting
SEPTEMBER 11 at 1 pm on Zoom
Speakers: Rosalyn Myles
Multimedia artist https://www.instagram.com/
I am a multidisciplinary artist. I use found objects, photography, fabric, wood and text to construct collages and installations that shine light on our untold stories. Utilizing various forms of expression, I hope to share social and political issues that are erupting from the discourse of modem culture. I am mining society’s lesser known stories about women and our shared experiences as persons of color in these United States . Bearing witness to the often ignored concerns that plague our cities and disenfranchised people all over the diaspora. As a contemporary artist, I am interested in exploring the conversations going on now in this new normal. How can we as a people move forward and find better ways of navigating the future?

July 17 – “The Collector” – By Daniel Silva
A novel. The story takes place against the background of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, and also the rising concerns about climate change. Gabriel Allon has retired from Israeli intelligence, but he is asked by Italian authorities to look into the theft of a painting from a private collector. The painting, which turns out to be Vermeer’s The Concert, has been missing for over thirty years, since it was stolen from the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum.[2] Allon tracks down the thief, as well as the wealthy oil executive who commissioned the theft. In the process, he learns about a more important theft, of materials for a nuclear bomb. He recruits both the thief and the oil tycoon to steal a deadly secret plan from a Moscow official.[3]
August 21 – Adventures in the Louvre ” by Elaine Sciolino
Elaine Sciolino immerses herself in this magical space and helps us fall in love with what was once a forbidding fortress. Exploring galleries, basements, rooftops, and gardens, Sciolino demystifies the Louvre, introducing us to her favorite artworks, both legendary and overlooked, and to the people who are the museum’s lifeblood: the curators, the artisans producing frames and engravings, the builders overseeing restorations, the firefighters protecting the aging structure. Adventures in the Louvre reveals the secrets of this grand monument of Paris and basks in its timeless, seductive power.
