This week on Artworks:
David Adam Moore, along with Chris Burchett, will be premiering the title role in IU Opera Theatre’s world premiere of “Vincent” this weekend. We’ll hear their reactions and how they prepared for the role.
Also on the program,
Yael Ksander visits the IU Art Museum, where an exhibition of photos by Andy Warhol tells a personal story about the man who turned Brillo Boxes, Tide detergent, and Campbell’s soup cans into art.
We’ll visit another unlikely art gallery in Bloomington: the walls of a local gourmet restaurant.
Then we step inside the gypsy wagon of the wandering book artists, whose handmade books dazzled Bloomington visitors.
