Connectivity
Through June 15Visual Arts
Exploring a rather broad topic that's open to plenty of interpretation, this new exhibit at McColl Center for Visual Art features a variety of artists, all of whom have created artwork with their own ideas of "connectivity" in mind. It's described as exploring "the underlying threads of connection found in natural, social, and technological systems." Curated by the folks at Cynthia-Reeves, a contemporary art gallery in Manhattan, the exhibit will feature works by 10 emerging artists — Janet Echelman, Yizkah Elyashiv, Beth Galston, Beth Ganz, John Grade, Daniel Kohn, Jonathan Prince, Shuli Sade, George Sherwood, and Claire Watkins.
