The 新香港六合彩资料鈥檚 Portland Campus will present its spring exhibition, from February 21 to June 14. An opening reception, which is free and open to the public, will be held at the gallery on February 21, from 5 to 7 p.m.

Curated by Gallery and Exhibitions Director Hilary Irons, 鈥淭he House of the Soul鈥 is a wide-ranging exhibition that presents a unique look at medical and anatomical drawing in dialogue with artwork focusing on the human body in a more extended sense. Viewers from diverse intellectual fields will be confronted with the divergent and sometimes contradictory communicative aims of each visual artifact. 鈥淭he inclusion of intelligent contemporary work dealing with representations of the body鈥檚 physical form allows a deeper and more abstract reading of the scientific drawings, while, in turn, the scientific drawings highlight the power of conceptual idiosyncrasy in the contemporary work,鈥 said Irons.

The ten artists represented in the exhibit span a range of approaches, from direct, highly-articulated medical illustration, to conceptually-oriented space-based constructions.  According to Irons, the artists鈥 explorations 鈥渙pen a window into the diverse uses of figurative interpretation.鈥

The featured artists are as follows:

  • Anoush茅 Shojae-Chagorvand
  • Baxter Koziol
  • Ben Spalding
  • Bianca Beck
  • Evelyn Kok
  • Gretchen Halpert
  • Oran Suta
  • Philip Brou
  • Reggie Burrows Hodges
  • Stephen Burt
