An immersive installation of moving images, “Honey, You’re a Wonderful Model” presents Austrian artist Maria Lassnig’s (1919-2014) hand-drawn animated films from the 1970s. Lassnig’s animations are populated by a cast of zany characters, frequently including Lassnig herself, who engage in physical comedy and slapstick antics while addressing the complexities of relationships, sexuality, grief, artistic creation, and embodiment.
Bring family and friends to view the artwork, and kick off the evening with complimentary lite bites from Taste! to Go. Cash bar featuring beer and wine, a Dirty Shirley specialty cocktail, and a Shirley Temple mocktail. Remarks from Kelly Baum, John and Mary Pappajohn Director and CEO, will take place at 6 pm.
