Exhibition runs through December 23

June Ahrens - In her recent work' Ahrens has explored repurposed and broken glass as material and metaphor. "What's Left" is a new turn for Ahrens' unified environment made up of a video surrounded by blue walls that are layered with dried pigment mixed with salt. 

Carlos Davila - Davila creates a visual landscape that abstracts the symbols and forms of ancient cultures and combines them with those of advanced technology and modern industry. He explores the relationship between the modern, highly mechanized age that we live in and a totemic, stylized symbolism of a variety of ancient cultures from Egypt, South America, and Africa.

The Hand of Man
J. Henry Fair

J. Henry Fair's subject in "The Hand of Man" is a damaged environment: de-forested landscapes, polluted waterways, hydraulic fracturing sites, and waste from refinery operations and other industrial practices. But in Fair's large-scale photographs, beauty and horror coexist.

Selections from the Gabor Peterdi International Print Collection: Landscape
