About this Event
Join us on Friday, September 12th at 6PM at ShowUp for a very interesting conversation about art, memory, and imagination.
The Iranian-born identical twin artists Bahareh and Farzaneh Safarani are known for their interdisciplinary productions that blend painting, performance, and video. Currently on view at ShowUp, their solo show Submerged in Time reflects on the Sisters’ recurrent theme of memory through imagery of celebration. Within memory there can be a bittersweet quality of nostalgia evoking the passage of time, lost moments, and what could have been.
Daniel L. Schacter is William R. Kenan, Jr. Professor of Psychology at Harvard University. Schacter’s research has examined the relation between explicit and implicit memory, the nature of memory distortions, how memory is related to future thinking, imagination, and creativity, and the effects of aging on memory. Schacter has received various awards for his work and published several books, including Searching for Memory (1996) and The Seven Sins of Memory (2001)
The conversation will be moderated by Christine O'Donnell, Executive Director of ShowUp.
