The ASMS Gallery is now showing Between: 2 and 3. This exhibit showcases work by Pieter Favier.

Favier says, ”All objects around us are encoded with levels of information. There can be cultural symbolism placed on images to the intrinsic value within the materials of which things are made. For example, in the United States, an American eagle cast in plastic and the same object carved from precious material, such as marble or cast in bronze, can carry different quality and value levels. This may be based on the relationship of the eagle as a symbol and the symbolic value placed on material.”

The gallery is located in the Bedsole Building on the school’s campus and is free and open to the public.

The gallery is managed by artist and ASMS art instructor Orren Kickliter.  Funding for the Gallery is made possible through a grant from the Arts Initiative of the Undesignated Community Endowment of The Community Foundation of South Alabama. The gallery brings tangible academic and artistic content that will add to and support the excellent academic program at ASMS.
