Re•Cast: Sculptural Works from the Art Museum of the Americas

September 9 to December 2, 2022

*** THIS EXHIBITION HAS BEEN EXTENDED THROUGH DEC 2, 2022. *** 

 

Culled from the exceptional modern and contemporary art collection of the Art Museum of the Americas, ReCast: Sculptural Works from the Art Museum of the Americas highlights rare and seldom seen sculptural works by prominent Latin American artists. The exhibtion celebrates the multifaceted qualities of this medium by initiating distinct conversations on sculpture in modern and contemporary Latin American art. In addition, the exhibition suggests new containers—theoretical, formal, and visual—through which to initiate conversations about the practice of sculpture in the Americas.

 

ReCast is organized by UMD Department of Art History and Archaeology Graduate Students Marco Polo Juárez Cruz, Cléa Massiani, and Gabrielle Tillenburg, under the direction of Associate Professor Abigail McEwen. Supplementary support provided by Undergraduate Students Maura Callahan, Magdalena Mastrandrea, Hannah Prescott, and Melissa San Miguel. 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, is provided by The Graduate School. This exhibition is in association with University of Maryland's Arts for All initiative. 

 

An in-person and socially distant exhibition preview will take place on Thursday, September 8, 5-8pm. This preview is in collaboration with The Clarice's NextNOW Fest 2022Free admission.
