SUMMARY:Artist Curator Talk
DESCRIPTION:Artist/Curator Talk\n\nJohn Yoyogi Fortes/Artist\n\nPhilip E. Linhares/Curator\n\n\n\nPlease join artist and curator for a talk about the art of John Yoyogi Fortes\n\nFortes is also a videographer and has collaborated with the California Association of Museums and the Crocker Art Museum in Sacramento\, producing videos of Bay Area artists Travis Sommerville and Mel Ramos\, and Austrian artist Gottfried Helnwein. Currently he is working with the Crocker Art Museum on their Block by Block initiative based on community engagement and various projects with the California Endowment.\n\n\n\nBorn in a taxi on Yoyogi Street in Tokyo\, John Yoyogi Fortes is a Northern California painter based in Sacramento. His paintings are often large-scale explorations of self that lean toward a whimsical\, dark\, and obscure world. The artist describes his process thus: "My paintings start spontaneously as I create random areas of color and imagery\, building up the surface. There is\, however\, a magical moment when interrelationships develop between the forms. Eventually a loose narrative is created based on ideas around self. This drives the direction and choices I make towards the painting's completion.
