EVENING KEYNOTE
Drawing Outside the Lines
Artist David Zinn has spent the past 20 years covering the city of Ann Arbor and far corners of the globe with more than a thousand creatures that have all washed away in the rain. Through visual examples and childhood stories, he will explain how his fear of blank canvases and a habit of doodling led to his career as the most widely shared sidewalk chalk artist on the internet. This examination will also address the value of anti-spectacle, the surprising advantages of self-destructing art, and how the difference between obstacles and opportunities is often a matter of perspective.
