Owlcast 89 - When the power of creativity transcends language and culture -- The IB Art Exhibition 2024
Listen now
Description
It’s one thing to visit and enjoy an art exhibition, seeing the artwork and the installations, and it’s quite another to listen to it. The artists sometimes are apprehensive about describing their art to an audience rather than a viewer, but when they start, a whole different world comes alive. The inner artist craves to speak out, on top of the visual representation of the art, explaining and exploring their own creative process. Today, we’re visiting the 2024 IB Art Exhibit, which took place in the lobby of the ACS Athens Theater as it does every year. This year, there were so many themes, so much observation of our world, and so much reflection on modern life and its challenges. Welcome to the captivating world of art, where the canvases are imbued with a plethora of emotions, themes, and experiences. The exhibition featuring works by International Baccalaureate students serves as a kaleidoscope of human existence, diving into the depths of the psyche and the intricacies of modern society.
