Black Artists Honoring Black Icons — A Free Virtual Art Roundtable


Celebrate Black History Month during a free Zoom event focused on black artists paying homage to black icons on Thursday, February 25.

Jean-Michel Basquiat, Muhammad Ali, Kobe Bryant, and Nipsey Hustle are just a few of the legendary figures honored in the work of artists TAJ and Tiffanie Anderson. TAJ and Anderson will join moderator Nausicaa, art curator for the Sofitel Los Angeles’ art gallery, #TheCoolHeART, for this Zoom conversation, titled “Art From the Heart.”  

The art they’ll discuss can be viewed in the Sofitel hotel’s lobby. A tribute to Los Angeles, the works were inspired by the pandemic and current social movements.

The artists will discuss their stories, their inspirations, BLM, and more. This conversation is open to the public, and you can register here.
