SUMMARY:Inhabit
DESCRIPTION:Inhabit brings together works from the Daum collection that explore the layered relationships between people and the landscapes they occupy. Spanning sculpture\, painting\, photography\, and printmaking\, the exhibition considers inhabitation not simply as dwelling in a place\, but as an ongoing exchange between body and environment. \nAcross media bodies emerge from\, dissolve into\, or confront their surroundings\, suggesting that identity is shaped as much by terrain as by memory. The landscape in Inhabit is not a passive backdrop. It is charged with history\, labor\, desire\, and change. Fields\, forests\, streets\, and constructed spaces become sites of belonging and displacement\, resilience\, and fragility. \nBy placing depictions of people and landscapes in conversation across materials\, the exhibition foregrounds the reciprocal nature of inhabitation. The works invite reflection on our own embeddedness within social\, ecological\, and built systems\, reminding us that to inhabit is both to shape and to be shaped. \nInstallation shot of "Inhabit" Amy Meissner\, "Milk on the Tongue"\, 2022; Vintage crocheted potholders\, embroideries\, abandoned crazy quilts\, glass and plastic craft beads\, swarovski crystals; Museum purchase.Amy Meissner\, "Milk on the Tongue"\, 2022; Vintage crocheted potholders\, embroideries\, abandoned crazy quilts\, glass and plastic craft beads\, swarovski crystals; Museum purchase.

SUMMARY:"Relay": Special Art Installation by Leticia R. Bajuyo
DESCRIPTION:During the week of April 20-23\, visiting artist Leticia R. Bajuyo will be installing a large\, floating art piece in the halls of the Stauffacher building. Through her large-scale works\, Leticia Bajuyo engages audiences and connects with communities through her site-specific installations that involve community collections of media and memories. By incorporating recognizable materials and forms including CDs\, artificial grass\, and insulation styrofoam\, Bajuyo creates spaces and multi-layered experiences that invite audiences to participate in theatrical re-arbitrations of value. \nLeticia R. Bajuyo is an interdisciplinary artist whose public commissions\, immersive installations\, and delicate visual poems transform collected audio media\, cast metal\, and synthetic remnants into carefully crafted objects that examine how identity\, value\, and desire are constructed and reshaped overtime. Her interest in unpacking value perceptions find their roots in her autobiography growing up bi-racial in a small\, rural town named Metropolis on the border of Illinois and Kentucky. The time and space of quiet landscapes outside and the multi-national dialogues inside her family’s house influenced the development of her critiques of consumer capitalism\, fickle domestic desires\, and internalized pressures of assimilation. She has participated in national and international residency programs including Muscarelle Museum of Art in Williamsburg\, Virginia; Fountainhead Residency in Miami\, Florida; Sloss Metal Arts in Birmingham\, Alabama\, and the From Waste to Art Museum in Baku\, Azerbaijan. In addition to her individual artwork\, she seeks community by participating in artist collectives including Land Report Collective and Project Vortex and serving on the Mid-South Sculpture Alliance (MSA) board of directors and the National Conference on Contemporary Cast Iron Art and Practices (NCCCIAP) steering committee. Bajuyo received her B.F.A. from the University of Notre Dame and M.F.A. from the University of Tennessee. She is an Associate Professor of Sculpture at the University of Oklahoma. Prior to Oklahoma\, she served as an Associate Professor at Texas A&M University–Corpus Christi\, Visiting Assistant Professor at Notre Dame\, and Professor of Art at Hanover College. In addition\, she has taught summer workshops at Anderson Ranch Arts Center and Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts\, and chairs the Visual Arts panel for YoungArts in Miami\, Florida. \nStudents and art enthusiasts are welcome and encouraged to come observe Leticia’s progress while this complicated piece is installed outside of the Goddard Gallery. \nWebsite: www.leticiabajuyo.com \nStudio photo- credit of Jared Ragland.

SUMMARY:Eye of the Beholder
DESCRIPTION:Seeing is not a neutral act. Our understanding of the visual world is shaped by our experiences\, cultural conditioning\, and surrounding environment. Meaning does not reside solely within an object; it arises from a participatory\, constructed process. As the author Anaïs Nin reminds us\, “We don’t see things as they are. We see things as we are.” \nEye of the Beholder approaches perception from this point of view\, especially as it relates to received notions of femininity. In this exhibition\, artworks that depict readable characteristics of the feminine are placed in conversation with abstract pieces that only allude to femininity’s essential qualities. The materiality of a Donna Sharrett textile\, the palette of a Helen Frankenthaler print\, and the imagery of a Michael Eastman photograph can each become allegories of femininity. When these works are placed in dialogue\, the subsequent comparisons invite us to question whether the very suggestion of the feminine alters how we interpret what we see next. \nIn Eye of the Beholder\, the installation\, itself\, becomes part of this inquiry. In one gallery\, a dense\, salon-style arrangement invites a layered reading through close spatial relationships. In the other room\, a more traditional presentation offers space and visual separation\, encouraging each work to stand on its own. Moving between these two environments\, viewers may notice how associations carry over\, linger\, or dissolve. We are invited to participate in this process\, to question our own habits of perception\, and to consider how suggestion and context shape what is seen. \nUltimately\, this exhibition asks us to consider how we come to recognize and imagine femininity\, not only in what is depicted\, but in what is implied. What appears to be “feminine” may not reside in the object at all\, but in the expectations we bring to it. In the end\, the key to the exhibition is not on the walls\, it is in the eye of the beholder. \nQuestions \n\nWhat three words describe femininity to you?\nWhat artwork in the exhibit speaks to femininity the most in your opinion? Why?\n\nQuote \n“We don’t see things as they are. We see things as we are.” -Anaïs Nin \nAnne Noggle\, "Mary: A Retrospective"\, 1987; Gelatin silver print; Gift of Ricci Racela & Michael Bonahan.Anne Noggle\, "Mary: A Retrospective"\, 1987; Gelatin silver print; Gift of Ricci Racela & Michael Bonahan.

SUMMARY:Under Pressure
DESCRIPTION:Drawn from the collection of the Daum Museum of Contemporary Art\, Under Pressure considers abstraction as a site of tension between order and disruption. Rather than offering escape\, abstraction here operates as a point of collision\, where systems intended to stabilize and contain begin to reveal their own instability. \nAcross the works presented\, a sense of underlying tension becomes visible. Control and vulnerability coexist in a state of friction\, producing a persistent and unresolved unease. The exhibition does not seek to resolve these conditions\, but to foreground them. \nFormal structures such as grids and repeated systems are subjected to pressure. They loosen\, fragment\, or give way to gesture. Surfaces accumulate and thicken\, resisting restraint and asserting material presence. In this context\, structures associated with clarity\, protection\, or definition appear increasingly fragile and provisional. \nAbstraction emerges as a charged field in which instinct and control intersect. Systems falter\, and moments of excess or disruption come to the fore. What is revealed is not collapse\, but a sustained state of instability in which order persists without ever fully securing itself. \nJack Tworkov\, "DA on P #4 Q1-73"\, 1978; Acrylic on paper.

SUMMARY:Contemporary Visions of the West
DESCRIPTION:The American West occupies a complex space in the cultural imagination\, shaped by frontier narratives\, industry\, land use\, migration\, resilience\, and mythmaking. Contemporary Visions of the West seeks work that reclaims or reimagines Western identities and landscapes beyond nostalgia or stereotype. Artists are encouraged to consider how ideas of the West intersect with issues of place\, labor\, environment\, power\, belonging\, and lived experience in the present moment. \nThis juried guest exhibition will feature artists living and working throughout the United States whose work engages Western themes through a contemporary lens.
