Unbound

From the venue:

January 25 - May 10, 2020
East Galleries, Zuckerman Museum of Art

Reception: Saturday, Jan. 25, 4 p.m. to 6 p.m.

Unbound brings together a multigenerational group of artists whose work takes an inventive and experimental approach to abstraction. Their works consider the essential elements of abstract painting: color, form, gesture, line, and space, through unorthodox use of materials that break the confines of a rectangular canvas, and implode the boundaries between painting, sculpture, and installation. The works on view hang, stretch, tether, and dangle off the walls, breaking free from the bounds of figuration, and complicating the boundaries of painting itself.

Unbound features the work of Romare Bearden, Sam Gilliam, Joe Overstreet, Eric N. Mack, Anthony Akinbola, Krista Clark, and Tariku Shiferaw. Museum hours: Tuesday-Saturday, 10 a.m.-5 p.m.; Sunday 12 p.m-5 p.m. The museum will be closed when the campus is closed.
