Zoom Presentation:
Carol McCusker, Curator of Photography at the Harn Museum of Art, will join us on Thursday, March 11 at 7:00pm for a Zoom presentation. She will discuss the current exhibit Terry Evans: Stories of the American Prairies. Here is an excerpt from the Harn website about Evans and the exhibit.
Terry Evans: Stories of the American Prairies
November 27, 2020 - July 4, 2021
The Melvin and Lorna Rubin Gallery
This exhibition features thirty-three photographs by acclaimed Chicago-based photographer, Terry Evans. It is a love letter to America’s Heartland that documents the ecological transformations of the Midwest from Texas to Canada. Evans’s micro-to-macro perspective examines the land through close-up and zoomed-out perspectives, taken on the ground and from the air (the latter not by drone). Her art comes out of a knowledge of the history of landscape photography, art history, the history of her region and America’s industrial development. Her vision is informed and distinctly humanist, at once grassroots and universal.
