Two Exhibitions to Open in Lord Hall Gallery Feb. 6
The Lord Hall Gallery at the University of Maine will present two new exhibitions that display art created by current and former UMaine faculty.
Featured Faculty/2015
An exhibition of new work by Department of Art faculty will be held in the Lord Hall Gallery from Feb. 6 to March 13. Work by Constant Albertson, Louise Bourne, Susan Camp, John Eden, Michael Grillo, Laurie E. Hicks, Samantha Jones, Gregory Ondo and Matt Smolinsky will be featured. Art will include photography, painting, ceramics, glass and mixed media installations. The exhibition presents an overview of the research and creative accomplishments of studio, art education and art history faculty.
Illusions and Reality: The Photographs of Alan Stubbs
A small retrospective of photographs by Alan Stubbs will be held in his memory in the Lord Hall Gallery from Feb. 6 to March 13. Stubbs, who retired as a psychology professor at UMaine, also was an accomplished photographer who often taught courses in the Department of Art. His research at the university was on visual perception, and his photographs — diverse in form and subject — reflect his interest in and understanding of the ways people perceive their surroundings. Stubbs died in October 2014. The exhibition honors his contributions to the department’s faculty and students, as well as the university.
The exhibitions are free and open to the public. Lord Hall Gallery is open from 9 a.m.–4 p.m. Monday through Friday and is wheelchair accessible.
