# Event Details

- **Event Name**: In Conversation with Artist Vian Sora
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 22 Jun, 2025 at 12:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Vian Sora and James Glisson, SBMA Chief Curator, will have a conversation about her artwork and her turn in 2017 to the abstract painting for which she has become so well known. She grew up in Baghdad, Iraq in a family of art dealers and auctioneers at the center of the Iraqi art world but then lived through two American invasions and the Insurgency. 

While her paintings are ultimately life-affirming and even joyous with buoyant colors, they also contain fragments of these difficult experiences as well as her adjustment to life in the United States where she has lived since 2006.
