Timothy Portlock’s artwork often deals with invented landscapes and visions of public space that are based in reality but altered by his artistic process. In conversation with Adelina Vlas, Assistant Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the artist will discuss his process and inspiration, especially the influence of “place” in his work. The conversation will also address themes related to the current exhibition at PAFA, in which Portlock is a featured artist.

The Rose Susan Hirschhorn Behrend Lecture Series:
October Art-at-Lunch lectures are supported by the Behrend Family in memory of Rose Susan Hirschhorn Behrend, a former docent at the Academy and great supporter of its education programs. This year, the Behrend series features four different perspectives on the idea of public art.

The Art-at-Lunch series of talks on American art and culture takes place every Wednesday. Bring your lunch and enjoy discussions and lectures with scholars and artists covering a variety of topics related to PAFA’s exhibitions, collections, and areas of interest.
