A Two-Way Mirror: Double Consciousness in Contemporary Glass by Black Artists
October 21, 2023 - October 2024
A Two-Way Mirror is an exhibition of contemporary Black artists who have used glass to create work that deconstructs social, cultural, gender, and racial identity concerns. Each artist uses glass to reflect thoughts and bodies that have historically been fraught with exploitation. Due to its reflectivity and translucence, glass is an apt medium to interrogate identity constructs such as the theory of double consciousness presented by W.E.B. Dubois in his seminal work, The Souls of Black Folk.
Illuminate: Glass Art for Early Learners
April 29, 2023 - March 2024
Art, science, and play collide as visitors learn about color, light, reflection, and shadow. The exhibition unfolds through world-class artworks created by Nikola Dimitrijevic, John Kiley, Richard Royal, Susan Stinsmuehlen-Amend, Veruska Vagen, and more. Each piece of art is activated by opportunities for early learners and their families to create, to move, to play, and to experience what makes glass extraordinary in the world of art.
The Salmon School
November 18, 2023 – September 15, 2024
The Salmon School is an international, multimedia traveling art performance and exhibition designed to motivate communities to tackle the issues facing salmon populations, and therefore, address climate change. The installation features a life-size school of approximately 450 mirrored salmon-like forms, sculpted from molten glass by concerned artists from around the world, and accompanied by first-hand video accounts from renowned scientists, artists, and indigenous peoples.
