"Assemblage + Collage + Construction" at the MAH


Not only is admission free on the "First Friday" of every month, the The Museum of Art and History even offers extended hours from 11am to 9pm. So last Friday Heike and I checked out the current exhibitions. We enjoyed the sculptures by Jerry Ross Barrish, and found some very stimulating pieces among the rest of Assemblage + Collage + Construction. We are planning to return tomorrow for Cut and Paste, a panel discussion on "the history of the assemblage, collage and construction art movements plus the creative artists and programs that turn junk and recycled objects into artistic masterpieces."
Jerry Ross Barrish will be there, as well as Donna Hunter, UCSC Professor of History of Art and Visual Culture, who actually came by Visual Resources today to pick images for her presentation.
(Location: MAH Auditorium, 4pm, cost: free)
