<p class="MsoNormal"><span style= "font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin;"> Every art form has its own language, a puzzle to unlock. One of the great joys of life is having a conversation with an artist who can decipher the code for us and allow us to see paintings anew. For this episode, we visit art galleries with two phenomenal Yaddo artists: <strong>Odili Donald Odita</strong>—the Nigerian American abstract painter whose vibrant large-scale paintings and site-specific installations mirror the mixed realities of life—and <strong>Alexi Worth</strong>, the acclaimed critic and painter whose <span style="color: black;">work explores what it means, in our digitally supersaturated environment, for pictures to be “mindmade and handmade.”</span> Contributing artists: Joseph Keckler, Veterinarian, The Dave Brubeck Quartet. <strong>Special thanks to</strong></span> <a href= "https://www.dcmooregallery.com"><strong><span style= "font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin;"> D.C.
