New Art Gallery Coming Spring 2025 The Kruglak Art Gallery is closed for the fall semester as we await the opening of our brand-new gallery, which will be located within the new Media Arts Center, adjacent to the Art Department. In the meantime, the Art Department is planning fall art events. The first event will be an exciting virtual art exhibit that will be available for viewing on the Kruglak Gallery website in the fall, please watch for announcements of other art events. Through My Lens // Virtual Art Exhibit The practice of the artists in this show is diverse and runs the gamut from historic processes to experimental digital systems. “Through my Lens” features the art of Chris Ferreria, Lauren Greenwald, Aaron Pedro, and Benjamin Poarch. Ferreria works both in color and black and white. He uses both abstract and representational imagery to explore and understand the tensions between the public and private dimensions of identity formation, and perception in society. Greenwald is a visual artist working in photography and video, using a range of traditional and contemporary methods to explore landscape, perception, and the experiential. Pedro is deeply attuned to his surroundings. The ocean, in particular, is his greatest muse. Photographing the ocean at dusk, he uses long exposure techniques to emphasize the movement of waves and clouds. Through photo-compositing, blending portraiture with landscapes and seascapes, he creates photographs that evoke both emotion and conceptual art, offering a new perspective on scenic photography. Poarch uses a unique process to create his images called a tintype. A tintype is a photograph made by creating a direct positive on a thin sheet of metal. Also included will be work created by Tim Faris, CJ Heyliger, Bekkah Walker, and Patricia Zambrano. Visit: https://www.artdoc.photo/online-exhibition/through-my-lens
