Pavel Banka, “Portrait with Rising Spirit,” 1986
Light Work is presenting “Unnatural Creatures: Selections from the Light Work Collection.” Curated by Erin Carter, “Unnatural Creatures” features Light Work Collection photographers Kanako Sasaki, Laura Aguilar and Tony Gleaton, among others, whose images explore the strangeness of being alive. “Unnatural Creatures” presents a coming-of-age story with a twist. Primarily focusing on the female body, the exhibition mines themes of gender, aging and socialization as thought, feeling and perception converge.
On March 4 at 5 p.m., Light Work and Carter will host a reception and informal talk in the Robert B. Menschel Gallery. This event is free and open to the public. Refreshments will be served.
The gallery is located on the second floor of the Schine Student Center at 303 University Place. The gallery is open daily, from 10 a.m.-9 p.m. Light Work invites groups and individuals to schedule tours and gallery talks of the exhibition and facility. Limited free public parking is available on Waverly Avenue; paid parking is available in Booth Parking Garage.
