The Language of Art

Enjoy the second talk at K Gallery by art expert and journalist Jakki Spicer tonight. Spicer is the art critic for East Bay Express and ARTWEEK, and is a Ph.D. in Cultural Studies. Tonight she is presenting "The Language of Art: Enjoyment, Knowledge and the Painted Word" at 7 p.m. Jakki Spicer grew up in the Bay Area, but left for other shores when she was 18. She has lived in Massachusetts, New York, Paris and Minneapolis, where she received her doctorate in Cultural Studies and Comparative Literature from the University of Minnesota in 2006. Her dissertation, entitled “Modern Texts: Autobiography and the Rise of the Individual,” explored the conjunction between modernity and the desire to read and write autobiographical texts. See it tonight at the K Gallery at Rhythmix Cultural Works, 2513 Blanding Ave., (510) 865-5060.

Earl J. Rivard

You can't keep the good ones down. Alameda native Earl J. Rivard was hit by a car when he was four months old and then, later in life, was hit two more times. The blind and partially-paralyzed Rivard doesn't let any of this get him down, releasing Troubadour Blue.
Track: "Saving Face."
