Lay of the Land
January 10 - February 20, 2014
Join us in the Mikhail Zakin Gallery for an exhibition of contemporary landscapes. Exhibitions in our gallery are designed to make contemporary art an accessible part of the cultural landscape. Lay of the Land begins with a traditional concept and pushes the boundaries of the tradition for a group exhibition of distinctly contemporary work. It is our hope that students and visitors will come away with an expanded definition of landscape and to be inspired to push the limits of their own work.

Works in Lay of the
Land expound upon the human experience of landscape. A variety of mediums
are presented in expression of the unique vantage points of the artists
involved. Some works have a direct relationship
to observed landscapes, with deviations of varying magnitude based in personal
expression. Other representations have passed through the prism of the artists’
experience, resulting in landscapes, impressed or fragmented by perception, and
compiled for viewing. Seen together, the
works are a celebration of the multitude of ways to faithfully represent the
lay of the land.
