Upcoming Exhibitions
Jeff Carter: Catalog
Thursday, Oct. 16 to Saturday, Nov. 22
Chicago artist Jeff Carter’s ongoing sculptural investigations of travel and landscape have recently led him to wonder how a trip to IKEA relates to tourism. The exhibition Catalog is informed by the IKEA catalog itself, and consists of several components made from abstractly reconfigured shelves, tables, bookcases and flooring. The resulting forms retain a sense of utility, yet incorporate elements of landscape, movement, and the Internet, suggesting that the global design of IKEA is also an aesthetic of “placelessness.”
Studio Art Faculty Exhibit
Thursday, Dec. 4 to Saturday, Jan. 10
An exhibition of new work by College of DuPage studio art faculty teaching in painting, sculpture, drawing, design, printmaking, photography, jewelry and more.
Richard Rezac
Thursday, Jan. 22 to Saturday, Feb. 28
Richard Rezac: Selected Sculpture and Drawings, 2003-2008
Chicago artist Richard Rezac makes sculptural work that is deliberative in its process: originating in drawing and incorporating a geometric language, these objects, while abstract in appearance, reside within human-scale and often insinuate a known source. This exhibition includes a selection of sculpture and preparatory drawings from the past five years.
Mark Booth
Thursday, March 12 to Saturday, April 11
Mark Booth is a Chicago-based interdisciplinary artist, whose work is rooted in an exploration of language, auditory phenomena, and thought. Booth will exhibit a number of language-based works in text, audio, video, and drawing that explore the themes of slowness, duration, and the quotidian.
Annual Juried Student Art Exhibit
Thursday, April 16 to Saturday, May 16
A juried display of paintings, drawings, sculpture, photography, ceramics, jewelry and more by College of DuPage art students.
Dianna Frid
Thursday, June 4 to Saturday, Aug. 8
Dianna Frid creates works that stem from existing images, diagrams and places. These existing things are submitted to vivid material and formal shifts that allow for new empirical experiences of the familiar. For her project at the gallery, Frid will make works that acknowledge the existing glass panes that separate the gallery from the lobby by making the space a penetrable vitrine that positions itself within a larger atrium.
