May 22 – September 23, 2018
This new series of overarching-themed exhibitions explores how artists are compelled to articulate humankind’s living presence. The instinct to make is truly a significant narrative. Advancements, memories, and beauty are conveyed in the form of interpretations that are passed on from generation to generation, and artworks signify who we are. The first exhibition in the series surveys the limitless variety of individual marks made by the vitality of the human eye, mind, and hand.
