About the Event
Stretchy, Soapy, Scintillating, Sharp
Exhibition opening
Friday, January 31 // 7:00 - 8:30pm
Sleepy Cyborg Gallery
Sewall Hall, room 258 and Sculpture Courtyard
Hotel lobbies, museums, and bathrooms seem to be the only places that exhibit abstract art. Standing in front of them, the audience is often confused, unsure of what they can feel or take away from these formal shapes or objects. This confusion discourages us, emerging artists, from experimenting with abstraction because of its negative associations. This group exhibition celebrates and encourages students who approach art as a formal exploration— pieces that might not always convey a deeper concept but reveal a curiosity towards textures, forms, and sounds.
An artists’ call will be open to all Rice student artists, and we accept art in all mediums: painting, sculpture, sound pieces, video, etc. More details will be emailed to the art listserv.
