Bass Museum Of Art Hosts Artist Reception For Latest Exhibit Laurent Grasso: Portrait Of A Young Man November 4, 2011

The Bass Museum of Art will host an artist reception for its newest exhibit Laurent Grasso: Portrait of a Young Man on Friday, November 4, 2011 from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. coinciding with the opening of French Week Miami.

For his solo exhibition at the Bass Museum, open to the public on October 29, 2011, Parisian artist Laurent Grasso juxtaposes historical works from the museum’s permanent collection of Renaissance and Baroque art with his own series of paintings, sculptures, videos and neons. The artist provocatively forms literal and figurative connections between the past and present and investigates shifting and multiple time frames in his conceptual art practice.

Guests will enjoy complimentary hors d'oeuvres by A la Folie Café and cocktails. The reception is free to members and basspass members and $8 for non-members. French week participants can RSVP at faccevents@faccmiami.com for free admission to the reception.
