Fernanda Cohen will moderate the lecture “Illustration as Fine Arts” at the Society of Illustrators on March 9th. Cohen has been running a lecture series at the society for over two years now. She chooses the topics and speakers, who discuss issues of interest to other illustrators. This week’s lecture will focus on illustrators’ work being shown at fine arts galleries in New York, the pros and cons of being a commercial artist when trying to break into the gallery world, and the difference between commercial and fine art.
