The Last Ten Years: In Focus Highlights From The David C. Driskell Center Collections

College of Arts and Humanities | David C. Driskell Center for the Visual Arts and Culture of African Americans and the African Diaspora Thursday, September 7 - Friday, November 17, 2017

The Last Ten Years: In Focus will include highlights from the David C. Driskell Center's acquisitions for the last decade. While the Driskell Center routinely exhibits a wide variety of themes and content in its shows, it very rarely has an opportunity to show off some of the more unique and interesting items from its collections. The exhibition will also display material from its archival collections as a complement to certain works in this show. The Last Ten Years will be an exciting opportunity for UMD and the broader community to sample the breadth and depth of the Driskell Center's art and archival holdings, which have grown by thousands of objects in the last decade. It will also serve as an opportunity for both the Driskell Center and its audience to examine questions around collecting, criticism, and legacy as they relate to art.

OPENING RECEPTION: Thursday, September 7th from 5-7 PM

No RSVP required. For more information please click here.

Gallery Hours: Monday - Friday: 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
