George Rush, professor in the Department of Art, gives a lecture titled "Recent Projects."
This artist talk will share work from four recent solo exhibitions: Assisted Living, 2022, Dayton Contemporary, Dayton OH; Double Bind, 2023, Belle-Isle Viewing Room, Detroit MI; Night Watch, 2024 Gallery goldene Pforte, Dresden, Germany; and Make-believe Love, 2024, ESCOLAR, Santa Rosa CA. Through painting, drawing, installation, and bookmaking, all four of these projects explore issues of place, time, class, observation, and subjectivity. I will speak to the specific motivations and process of making these projects while sharing images of exhibitions, individual works, and a recent artist book.
