Art Exhibit: Shirley Irons: A Perfect Day November 12, 2009 - December 18, 2009 Staniar Gallery, Wilson Hall
X

Artist Shirley Irons is a painter and photographer who has been exhibiting, teaching, lecturing, and curating for over 25 years. She uses her paintings to “slow down, edit out, [and] look for the permanence in the transitory.” In her current series, Irons paints empty institutional spaces, such as airports, office buildings, and hospitals, along with other fragments of daily life.  The works evoke an ephemeral transcendence suspended in environments that we experience indirectly. Irons teaches at the School of Visual Arts in New York City and is represented by the Luisotti Gallery in Santa Monica, California.

Staniar Gallery is open Monday - Friday, 9am-5pm

Kamen Gallery: Netsuke, A Glance at Part of the Glickstein Collection September 1, 2009 - December 20, 2009 Kamen Gallery no charge
X

Introduced in 14th-century Japan, the netsuke would hang from a kimono's obi or sash by a cord to attach the container in which Japanese men would store their personal belongings. These soon became elaborately sculpted from ivory, lacquer, wood and other exotic materials.

The netsuke in the Washington and Lee Collection come from alumnus Joseph M. Glickstein.

Kamen Gallery hours are 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday.
