SANTA BARBARA — The Santa Barbara Museum of Art will present “Couples with Cassandra C. Jones and Mikael Jorgensen” at 5:30 p.m. Thursday, March 16 at SBMA’s Mary Craig Auditorium, 1130 State St., Santa Barbara.
Inspired by the artistic collaboration of Ed Kienholz and Nancy Reddin Kienholz and the SBMA exhibition Scenes from a Marriage: Ed & Nancy Kienholz, this series explores what happens in fiction and life when artist couples work together or in parallel, and sometimes within competitive creative spaces.
Contemporary artist Cassandra C. Jones, whose work has shown in venues throughout the US and Europe, including Mass MoCA, Prix Ars Electronica in Linz, Austria, and the MFA Houston, is joined by her husband, Mikael Jorgensen, the Grammy award-winning keyboardist for Wilco. The two reflect on marriage and being a creative couple in an audio-visual presentation and guided conversation with James Glisson, SBMA Curator of Contemporary Art.
Location: SBMA’s Mary Craig Auditorium, 1130 State Street, Santa Barbara
$5 SBMA Members/$10 Non-Members
