    PAA welcomes artists Joel Erland and Kate Kaman for a lecture about their collaborative artistic practice in Philadelphia. Husband and wife team Erlund and Kaman will address the question, “what is your favorite piece of architectural art?” Their historical influences include Ernst Haeckel’s World’s Fair architecture, Constantin Brancusi’s Bird in Space, and Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi’s Liberty Enlightening the World. Erland and Kaman will discuss how public spaces and architecture inform their work and shape their perspectives as artists, and how the constant dialogue of working as a team can provide inspiration for works that neither artist would create alone.
