Exhibition extended at Anderson Gallery
An installation by master printer Chunwoo Nam, currently on view in the UB Anderson Gallery, will be extended through July 22.
The installation, titled “Their Globalization,” speaks to the human consequences of our global economy. It is dominated by a wall of prints depicting Times Square incrementally fading due to the degradation of the printing process. Images of interconnections and absence permeate the installation, including an imposing and brightly colored pile of clothing hemmed in by shirtsleeves tied together situated before an altar.
The UB Anderson Gallery is located at One Martha Jackson Place near Englewood and Kenmore avenues, adjacent to the South Campus.
Gallery hours are 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesday through Saturday, and 1-5 p.m. on Sunday.
