Atlanta Chapter Event - Design Conversation with Ken Carbone

MODA and Portfolio Center present Design Conversation with Ken Carbone - True Obsessions : Art, Music and Design and Why They Matter More Everyday

The paintings of Picasso, the opening of Beethoven’s 9th, the Apple iPhone; are among the greatest creative examples of our species behaving beautifully. Art, music and design are dominant cultural drivers that continue to make important and lasting contributions to civilization.
In his presentation, Ken Carbone, Co-Founder of the Carbone Smolan Agency, will reveal how he has juggled these personal obsessions for over five decades to build a rewarding creative career. Including a live guitar performance, he’ll also discuss how art, music and design are becoming more essential in contemporary life as they provide a needed bright spot in an increasingly troubled world.
