Exhibit: Liliana Porter
• Location: Simmons Visual Arts Center
• Contact: 770.534.6263

The focus of the 2009 Brenau University Museum Education Program. Born in Argentina, New Yorker Liliana Porter creates works that reflect her desire to communicate a story to the viewer. She creates illusions by using items from her childhood, such as small games, ceramic figures, and toys and is heavily influenced by literary authors and other artists who force the viewer to redefine their view of art. Music and videos add depth to her enchanting stories thus giving more credibility and life to her whimsical characters.
