Leopold Plotek’s Artist Talk – Video

Leopold Plotek is both artist and co-curator (with Ben Portis) of the exhibition Workingman’s Dead: Lives of the Artists, now on view at the McMaster Museum of Art. He is also an instructor of painting and drawing in the Studio Art Program at Concordia University.
