NextNOW Fest 2022

Thursday, September 8, 2022 - 20:00

The University of Maryland Art Gallery is please to partner with The Clarice on NextNOW Fest 2022. This year's Art Gallery offerings include: 

RECAST: SCULPTURAL WORKS FROM THE ART MUSEUM OF THE AMERICAS

Culled from the exceptional modern and contemporary art collection of the Art Museum of the Americas, this exhibition highlights rare and seldom seen sculptural works by prominent Latin American artists.

VIDEO IN THE ATRIUM (VITA): CRISTINA LUCAS

This new series aims to bring art outside the walls of the gallery and activate an underutilized section of the Parren J. Mitchell Art-Sociology Building’s large atrium and gathering space. The first in the series will be The People That Is Missing (2019) by Spanish artist Cristina Lucas, a video work that underscores the most devastating effects and consequences of climate change. 

IN MEMORIAM: W.C. RICHARDSON

This memorial exhibition honors the artistic career and teaching legacy of UMD art professor W.C. Richardson (1953-2022). On view are a selection of drawings and paintings by Richardson over the years.

All exhibitions are organized by the University of Maryland Art Gallery. Major support is provided by the Dorothy and Nicholas Orem Exhibition Fund. Generous support is provided by the Maryland State Arts Council. Additional support, by way of a Faculty-Student Research Award, was provided by The Graduate School. All exhibitions are in association with UMD's Arts for All initiative.
