Father, son artists to display work, speak at Peninsula College on Thursday

PORT ANGELES — The father-and-son artistic duo known as Lipschutz & Lipschutz have an art exhibit on display now at the PUB Gallery of Art at Peninsula College, and they are planning a free lecture on it Thursday.

Jeff Lipschutz and his son, Mike, will discuss their assemblage format — which they call a “people’s” art — in the Little Theater, adjacent to the PUB Gallery. Both are in the J building on the college’s campus at 1502 E. Lauridsen Blvd.

Their presentation at 12:30 p.m. Thursday is part of the free, public Studium Generale series at the college.

A free reception will follow at 1:30 p.m. in the PUB Gallery.

The Lipschutz & Lipschutz exhibition, titled “School Mule,” is named for one of its sculptures, a work that evokes the first day of school, be it at kindergarten, junior high or college.

While in Port Angeles, Jeff and Mike Lipschutz are working with Peninsula College students to create collaborative assemblage art, to be put on display Thursday.

Los Angeles-based sculptor Paige Silverman is also in on the project.

The public is invited to visit the PUB Gallery, where admission is free and the hours are 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Mondays through Fridays.

To find out more about the show and the artists, contact Peninsula College art professor Michael Paul Miller at mmiller@pencol.edu or 360-417-6476, or visit www.lipschutzandlipschutz.com.
