To See a World

Special Collections Gallery
August 14 - September 22, 2017

 

"Abstracted or extrapolated, the serene, strange, and surreal worlds pictured in this exhibition share a mutual interest in nature. Proposing unity and wholeness, the artists’ works are informed by music, literature, and the ethos of twentieth century spirituality. They pull back and zoom in, offering diverse perspectives of the natural world that point to interconnectedness, layers, and perfect imperfections." – Hannah Keating

The artworks presented in To See A World were selected from the School of Art permanent collection, featuring works by Larry Kissick, Winston Leathers, David Milne, Tony Urquhart, and Alex Janvier.

Organized by Jamie Wright.
