Exhibit: Jeremy Boyle S/T
Herter Gallery is pleased to present an exhibition of sculpture projects by newly appointed UMass Amherst art professor, Jeremy Boyle.
The artist has cited his background in music and engineering as being among the primary influences that have shaped his work. Boyle utilizes a broad range of media to create enigmatic and whimsical sculpture installations that balance system and pattern with responsive information and indeterminacy, leaving the question of intent always in flux.
Opening Reception: Thursday, February 1st, from 4 to 6pm.
Regular Gallery hours: Mon-Fri 11am-4pm & Sun 1pm-4pm
Both exhibition are free and open to the public.
