Posted: Tuesday, October 3, 2017Today: Artist Talk and Reception - You and Me: An Interactive Installation
The campus community is invited to participate in the interactive installation You and Me by Western New York artist Fotini Galanes, on view in the Czurles-Nelson Gallery in Upton Hall through October 19. The gallery is open Monday–Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Ms. Galanes, a featured artist of the Anne Frank Project, will deliver an artist talk today, October 3, at 12:15 p.m. in the Czurles-Nelson Gallery, with a reception from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. Everyone is welcome.
Ms. Galanes has established My Mark Matters, a global multifaceted story-telling project, by way of personifying and documenting surfaces—first without words, then with them. Thus far, materials have been collected from participants in 37 countries. No one is without marks or the stories from which they came. You are invited to participate by choosing a block that most personifies you or someone you know, and documenting what you see. Then, on the bottom of the sheet, share your story or tell their story. Which block personifies you? What is your story? Your image and writing will become part of this major installation.
