Kenneth Tyler: The Art of Collaboration
September 19 – November 10
Berkshire, Reese, and Paul Galleries
Eskenazi Hall
This fall, "Kenneth Tyler: The Art of Collaboration" will focus on renowned master printer and Herron alumnus Ken Tyler's pioneering collaborative work with some of the most iconic artists of the twentieth century — Joseph Albers, Roy Lichtenstein, Robert Motherwell, Helen Frankenthaler, Frank Stella, David Hockney, Joan Mitchell, Anthony Caro, and others. The exhibition will include screenings of a series of documentary films by filmmaker Frank Cantor that illuminate the processes of printmaking and the working relationships between the artists and Tyler.
Mary Reid-Kelley and Patrick Kelley: The Minotaur Trilogy
September 19 – December 12
Marsh Gallery
Eskenazi Hall
A mix of Greek cartoon, slapstick comedy, and punning wordplay, Reid Kelley's video trilogy produced in collaboration with Patrick Kelley explores the Greek myth of the minotaur and, through it, the present-day roles of women, sexuality, language, and art historical tropes.
Stuff(ed)
September 19 – December 12
Basile Gallery
Eskenazi Hall
Stuff(ed) will feature a selection of contemporary artists – Jessica Dance, David Gabbard, and Natalie Baxter – using soft sculpture to explore issues around consumer culture, social conventions, and artistic tradition. This exhibition will examine the playful, subversive power of sculpted fabric to transform and reimagine mass-market commodities and bric-a-brac from everyday life.
