ROCKY BRIDGES, Mixed Media Assemblage
January 7-30, 2013
|
|
Bridges' constructions are carefully composed meditations on the transcience of functional, manufactured items from our contemporary, material culture. "In all of my work, I hope to celebrate the beauty and material existence of the discarded object. The history of the object, through its scratches and scars, dents and rust, is being honored," states Bridges. "The objects find a heightened level in their new arragements; they are reinvented and have new meaning in aesthetically ordered settings."

DAN NAMINGHA, "Symbolism"
November 4-29, 2010
Celebrating Native American Heritage on the Ybor City Campus
|
|
"Symbolism" presents a series of paintings by internationally-recognized Hopi/Tewa artist Dan Namingha of Santa Fe, NM, that blend abstraction and reality. Namingha's paintings contain the emblems and symbols of Hopi ceremonies, to which he is strongly connected in both spirit and person. Raised in the combined tradition of two Pueblo peoples, the Hopi and Tewa, Dan marries the colorful, geometric imagery of his indigenous roots with the tradition of twentieth-century abstract modernism. "By drawing on his 3,500-year-old culture as well as his experience of modern America, Namingha gives us American art not only at its source, but at its best."--Harvard Magazine

X Y Z - Navigating the Landscape of Belief - DOLORES COE, SHERYL HALER & DEE HOOD
March 1-25, 2010
|
| "XYZ" creates a transmedia gathering of physical and visual icons, both real and invented, that speak to the human need to believe in something. The historical creation of systems of belief--stories, entities, objects, symbols and spaces that we create to comfort, validate, explain and connect is the starting point. The power of the mystery and magic assigned these spirits to guide, heal, protect, enlighten and avenge provides the basis for this metaphorical space--with a contemporary take on navigating the landscape of belief. |

Juan Pacheco & the Ancient City of Caral
October 5-28, 2009
|
| In celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month on the Ybor Campus, the Art Gallery has invited artist Juan Pacheco from Lima, Peru, to create an installation in the performing arts building. Juan’s current work is inspired by the Ancient City of Caral, Peru, about 5 hours north of Lima. Caral is a relatively new acrheological find, discovered only 10 years ago. It consists of 7 pyramids that are approximately 5,500 years old, making it the oldest city in the Americas. During the construction of the pyramids at Caral the ancients made knotted fiber bags filled with rocks called “shicras,” that were used as the mortar between the huge stones of the pyramids. They are being excavated at the site today, and have are the source inspiration for Juan Pacheco’s fiber, “Peruvian stitch” shicra artwork. In 2009 Caral was designated a World Heritage Patrimonial Site by UNESCO. |
