Video still from “Sharrod (Turn/Twirl)” (2012)
The Department of Foundation in the College of Visual and Performing Arts (VPA) is presenting “Turn, Twirl and Dip,” an exhibition of work by artist Jason Hanasik, through Thursday, March 6, at J&J Smith Gallery in Smith Hall. A closing reception will be held on March 6 from 5-7 p.m.
Hanasik works in a variety of media, including photography, video, installation and the written word. The exhibition includes two video works, “Sharrod (Turn/Twirl)” and “In the Green Zone: November 2007.”
Hanasik’s work has been exhibited widely and published in various journals and publications. He currently advises students in the graduate program in fine arts at California College of the Arts and manages digital creative and sonic experience for Gap’s North America region. In 2012, the Smithsonian named “Sharrod (Turn/Twirl)” a finalist in the National Portrait Gallery’s 2012 Outwin Boochever Portrait Competition. In 2014, Hanasik’s first monograph, “I slowly watched him disappear,” will be published. Learn more at http://www.jasonhanasik.com.
