The City of Boulder is launching an Experiments in Public Art Lecture Series, designed to foster conversations around artistic expression and creative processes in the city. Several of the lectures include a community workshop component, allowing attendees to experiment with their own creations.
Ana Maria Hernando's lecture will be focused on her public art practice and the intersection of femininity and the built environment. Her work, Fervor, will be on display in the conoid entrance of the Main Boulder Public Library during May.
The Experiments in Public Art program serves as a city-wide laboratory expanding the potential of public art. Unlike a traditional public art commission, Experiments in Public Art projects are as much an experiment for the community as they are opportunities for artists to work within unconventional parameters.
