Trained as a musician, conditioned as a hiker, Ian Evans Guthrie began creating home-made videos of his outdoor adventures in his teenage years. Through his Modernist Art History course, he discovered a fascination for modern music and radically enlarged his musical palette. In 2019, he composed his award-winning work Those Left Behind on his impressions of Mark Messersmith’s painting of the same name. More recently, he has begun collaborating with dancers and choreographers, and is becoming increasingly conscious of the interdisciplinary influences on his works. Indeed, many of his works incorporate other arts, including poetry, narrative, images, videos, and/or choreography. Come hear Guthrie talk about his artistic journey, and see some of his works in action with some of his collaborators, including his current work with Venvi Art Gallery.
Why I joined the Chamber
“The Chamber is all about being given the opportunity to form relationships through networking. In Leads Groups, you spend quality time with other businesses, and often gain “Access” (another Chamber group focusing on younger members) to their connections as well. In Leadership Tallahassee, you gain a new family of business leaders, and are guaranteed exposure to something or some group you were not familiar with, while broadening your understanding of all things “Tallahassee”. With LT’s Building Better Boards, you get to spend an evening with a great, philanthropic/altruistic group who are learning to serve their nonprofits more effectively. With the Chamber Conference, you get to spend quality time off-site and in a more casual setting while learning more about our community. Is the Chamber helpful for your business? Absolutely – especially if you join, engage, and take advantage of the great programs they offer!”
