The 91漫画app Betty Foy Sanders Department of Art will present work by the late sculptor Lew Alquist, Sept. 26 – Oct. 28, in the Contemporary and University Galleries at the Center for Art &聽Theatre.

Alquist incorporated found objects, kinetic energy, sound and scent into his work鈥攑rovoking the senses to make the invisible more visible.聽 His work primarily examines similarities, parallels, overlaps, and adjacencies between technological development and human evolution, but it also points to issues of political and industrial corruption as relevant today as when the work was created, in the 1970s-1990s.

鈥淒iscovering Alquist鈥檚 work has been a great surprise, like discovering a rich, dense novel that reveals crucial things you didn鈥檛 know you needed to know about,鈥� said Gallery Director Jason Hoelscher. 鈥淣ot as well-known as he should have been, Lew seems to have been something of an artist鈥檚 artist, known mainly to the cognoscenti. His work manages to touch on important political events of the time, while also offering intriguingly idiosyncratic (and often hilarious) new viewpoints from which to consider the art world of his era, ranging from postminimal materiality to art-as-technology and technology-as-art. With this exhibition we really hope to introduce Lew鈥檚 work to a larger, contemporary audience鈥攏ot only is the work itself top-notch and provocative, but his statement that 鈥楴ot everything is art, but everything is art supplies鈥� deserves to be right up there in the pantheon with any other profound phrase about art鈥檚 inherent potentials.鈥� A presentation on Alquist鈥檚 work will be given during an Artist Talk on Friday, Sept. 30 at 5 p.m. in Visual Art Building, Room 2071. A reception will follow from 6 to 7:30 p.m. in the Center for Art & Theatre. All events are free and open to the public. Alquist鈥檚 wife Jane Pleak, who taught ceramics at Georgia Southern for nearly 30 years, curated the exhibition. In honor of Alquist, Pleak started a memorial fund to help the BFSDoArt bring visiting artists to the University to enhance student learning through workshops and lectures.
