Exhibit: ‘French Printmaking in the Seventeenth Century’

10:00 am to 05:00 pm
IU Art Museum (IU Campus, 1133 E. 7th St.)
http://tinyurl.com/9jrmkox

Artists working in Paris and Lorraine during the Baroque period developed distinctive styles—which focused on the vibrancy of the line—that differed markedly from their Italian and Dutch contemporaries. The two print kiosks in the early part of the gallery feature French works by Jacques Bellange, Claude Lorrain, Jacques Callot, and Claude Mellan, whose engraving is a tour de force of printmaking that creates the face of Christ using a single line.

Gallery of the Art of the Western World, Doris Steinmetz Kellett Gallery of Twentieth-Century Art, first floor. The British Pop artist Joe Tilson used tabloid journalism and news photography as the basis for many of his prints and multiples of the late 1960s. Becoming increasingly political, he saw the pictures of revolutionary leaders and current events as a means for social commentary. This installation will include several of his works from this turbulent period.

Runs until December 30. Open during regular museum hours (Tuesday – Saturday, 10 am – 5 pm, Sunday 12 pm – 5 pm.)

Exhibit: Adam Thorman and Laura Plageman at Pictura Gallery

11:00 am to 07:00 pm
Pictura Gallery (122 W. 6th St.)
http://www.picturagallery.com/index.htm

Adam Thorman describes his body of landscapes, “What Light Remains in the Absence”, as an ode to the weight of light and the presence of absence. They are soft and subtle visual records of permanence and transience in the forms of rocks and tides on the American west coast. Laura Plageman’s “Response” is an equally thoughtful exploration of the same region. She challenges perceptions and our sense of what is permanent, what is precious, and what is malleable by physically altering the paper of the print and re-photographing the result to form her own new landscapes. These works will be on view together at Pictura, running through December 29.

Pictura Gallery is open 11 am – 7 pm, Tuesday – Saturday.

Exhibit: ‘A Place Aside: Artists and Their Partners’

01:30 pm to 05:00 pm
Kinsey Institute (Morrison Hall, 1165 E. 3rd St.)
http://tinyurl.com/8exa49c

This exhibit, “A Place Aside: Artists and Their Partners,” is on display at the Kinsey Institute Gallery and will run from September 28 to December 20.

Since the invention of photography, the camera has been turned towards loved ones to document birthdays, vacations, graduations, and other significant events. For each of the couples included in this exhibition, however, photography is not a method of simply recording events but a means of exploring their partnership through the creation of art. While the photographs serve as documents of a couple’s life together, they also reveal the trust and respect that each partner has for the other.

The Kinsey Institute Gallery is open to the public Monday-Friday, 1:30 pm-5 pm.
