Artist Talk with Henri Doner-Hedrick Thursday | April 3 7-8 PM Marvin Auditorium 101C First Fridays Reception Friday | April 4 5:30-8:30 PM Sabatini Gallery This multi-media show includes painting, installation and video art by Henri Doner-Hedrick, who spent the past six years documenting her mother's final years in the health care system—a visually powerful show and conversation starter. Also showing: Art in the Library/125 Years and Counting examines the unique role we've played in being early adopters of the notion that "modern libraries are MORE than just books", and Recent Acquisitions features some of our newest purchases for the permanent collection. Anyone unable to see our current Out of Sight/Out of Mind exhibit can experience part of Henri Doner-Hedrick's multi-media installation here, through the artist's statement and bio, poetry by Hedrick's sister, Bobbie Piper, and this YouTube video from the artist entitled, Mom Remembers. The exhibit runs April 4–May 16. Recent gallery visitors have found this to be a powerful viewing experience. View all visitor book comments here.
