SUMMARY:Making Meaning and Memories: The Creation of the Lexington Women’s Monument with Meredith Bergmann\, Celeste Freeman and Jessie Steigerwald
DESCRIPTION:This special panel event features sculptor Meredith Bergmann\, designer of the newly unveiled Lexington Women’s Monument. The work is called “Something Is Being Done” and this panel will include both descendants of women commemorated in the monument\, as well as members of the LexSeeHer Research Team. The monument recognizes more than twenty women and girls. Learn more about both the creation of the monument\, and the way community members have engaged with the work since the unveiling. \nFor over 40 years\, Meredith Bergmann has been making sculpture that deals with complex themes in an accessible\, beautiful\, and provocative way. Working within the tradition of narrative sculpture\, she draws on her love of history of art\, literature\, and mythology to make the past speak to the present. Blending the sensuality and power of representational sculpture with her own subtle sense of mischief\, her work evokes multilayered responses. She works on both public and private monuments\, exploring issues of history\, social justice\, race\, human rights\, different abilities\, and the power of music and poetry. Her work has been shown in more than two dozen exhibitions and appears in over a dozen institutional collections. Her public commissions include the Boston Women’s Memorial on Commonwealth Avenue in the Back Bay\, the Women’s Rights Pioneers Monument in New York City’s Central Park\, the FDR Hope Memorial in Roosevelt Island\, and The Lexington Women’s Monument. \n  \nTickets: https://lexingtoncommunityed.org/class/hurley-event-photography-making-meaning-and-memories-the-creation-of-the-lexington-womens-monument-with-meredith-bergmann-celeste-freeman-and-jessie-steigerwald/
