A long-standing partnership with UNCG’s School of Art, the Falk Visiting Artist program brings nationally and internationally recognized artists to Greensboro. While here, they work closely with students and off er a public presentation on their work. This spring’s Falk Artists work at the intersection of art and activism on the US/Mexico border. Using a range of media—from digital technologies to traditional oil painting—they draw attention to the lived experiences of immigrant populations.
