Looking Forward, Looking Back: 1975 - 2005 at the University Gallery
As it celebrates its 30th anniversary, the University Gallery is pleased to announce a new lecture series celebrating some of the most notable exhibitions in the Gallery's history. Looking back at the University Gallery's three decades of provocative and landmark programming, the series will highlight the artists and directors behind some of the Gallery's most significant shows. Participants will include legendary artists Robert Irwin, Judy Pfaff, and Allan Wexler, with former directors Dr. Hugh M. Davies, Helaine Posner, and Betsy Siersma.
By bringing these significant artists and directors back to UMass and by holding these public dialogues, we hope to raise awareness of the vanguard role played by the University Gallery during these seminal years, and to bring attention to our current mission to engage a new generation of important visual artists who will make their mark here at the University Gallery.
