About the Exhibitions

On view in the Great Hall is DEMO, a multimedia exhibition by artists Juan Obando and Yoshua Okón that explores the practice of “astroturfing”—a marketing ploy that generates fake public demonstrations intended to appear as grassroots political movements. On view in the East Wing Galleries is 500 Places at Once, an exhibition centering poet CAConrad that features a newly commissioned collection of three-dimensional poem sculptures; and Graves for the Rain, the first solo museum exhibition by artist and musician Karima Walker who works with sound, sculpture, and durational performance to consider ecological practices and grief in response to the hydrological death of the Santa Cruz River.

 

Third Thursdays are presented in collaboration with KXCI Community Radio.
