Join Chicago-based artist Jan Tichy as he discusses his studio practice alongside the major public projects he has embarked upon in recent years, including projects in Chicago and Gary, Indiana. Tichy will also discuss his most recent endeavor as the current resident for the MSU Federal Credit Union Artist Studio Series, which invites artists to interact with the community through site-specific installations and educational programs. Focusing on the Flint Water Crisis, Tichy has embarked on a community-based project that connects Lansing area high school students with high school students from Flint to explore the ways that art can address social and political issues. The physical culmination of these efforts will result in a unique installation occupying the Alan and Rebecca Ross Education Wing of the Broad MSU, set to open on January 21, 2017.
