You’ll want to be in the auditorium next Tuesday when Jim Drain ‘98 SC talks about his widely varied career and experiences. Jim was a member of the former art collective Forcefield, which was featured in the Whitney Biennial in 2002.  He also won the Baloise Art Prize at the 2005 Art Basel show in Switzerland.  He paints, draws and creates installations, collages, furniture, stained glass, silkscreen, performance art, mail art, book art, comics and video - a brilliant craftsman who is comfortable working in a multiplicity of forms. He is currently represented by the Greene Naftali gallery in New York.

Jim is speaking as part of our RISD Alumni Lecture Series on Tuesday, October 28, 2008, at 6:30 pm in the RISD Auditorium. This event is free and open to all.
