Art Exhibit: Graphic Solidarity: The Internationalist Outlook of the Cuban Revolution
(Arts and Cultural (On Campus))
|
Description: |
Graphic Solidarity: The Internationalist Outlook of the Cuban
Revolution features posters produced in Cuba during the period
following the revolution through the 1980s. The posters highlighted in this
exhibition focus on Cuba’s efforts to spread the messages of their revolution
worldwide and to inspire others in the fight against oppression stemming from
the legacy of imperialism and colonialism. Primarily published by the OSPAAAL organization
based in Havana, these works helped to facilitate the internationalist outlook
and message of the Cuban revolution through their inclusion in the
Tricontinental Magazine which reached people in more than 60 countries
worldwide. The works in this
exhibition are on loan from the collection of Lindsay Webster, Spartanburg,
SC. Curated by Katie McCorkle, this exhibition is a culmination of
her year-long Art History and Government honors project.

Art Exhibit: Sacred and Secular: Netherlandish Baroque Paintings from Regional Collections, Richardson Family Art Museum
(Arts and Cultural (On Campus))
|
Description: |
Dynamic and theatrical, but also down-to-earth, moralizing, and
sometimes comic. Triumphant, grandiose, and propagandistic, and yet
also intimate and inward. All of these terms are applicable to the
art of the European Baroque, the cultural epoch of the seventeenth and
eighteenth centuries which produced an unprecedented richness and variety in
creative expression. Complex and conflicting forces across the
political, religious, economic, and social spheres of life account for this
artistic abundance. The Netherlands, a major center of artistic
production during the Baroque period, was home to many of these contrasts and
conflicts within its relatively small geographic boundaries along the northern
coast of Europe.
These diverse cultural forces are evident, in varying ways and
degrees, in a selection of paintings generously lent to Wofford College by the
Bob Jones University Museum & Gallery in Greenville, SC, the Columbia
Museum of Art in Columbia, SC, and the Robicsek Family Collection in Charlotte,
NC.

Art Exhibit: Sacred and Secular: Netherlandish Baroque Paintings from Regional Collections, Richardson Family Art Museum
(Arts and Cultural (On Campus))
|
Description: |
Dynamic and theatrical, but also down-to-earth, moralizing, and
sometimes comic. Triumphant, grandiose, and propagandistic, and yet
also intimate and inward. All of these terms are applicable to the
art of the European Baroque, the cultural epoch of the seventeenth and
eighteenth centuries which produced an unprecedented richness and variety in
creative expression. Complex and conflicting forces across the
political, religious, economic, and social spheres of life account for this
artistic abundance. The Netherlands, a major center of artistic
production during the Baroque period, was home to many of these contrasts and
conflicts within its relatively small geographic boundaries along the northern
coast of Europe.
These diverse cultural forces are evident, in varying ways and
degrees, in a selection of paintings generously lent to Wofford College by the
Bob Jones University Museum & Gallery in Greenville, SC, the Columbia
Museum of Art in Columbia, SC, and the Robicsek Family Collection in Charlotte,
NC.

Wofford Theatre Presents: Dutchman, Sallenger Sisters Black Box Theatre (RSRCA)
(Arts and Cultural (On Campus))
|
Description: |
Amiri Baraka's 1964
masterpiece functions as a brutally incisive meditation on race and identity.
Staged entirely in a New York City subway car, Dutchman's allegorical
narrative follows Clay and Lula, two strangers whose catastrophic encounter
reflects issues still deeply felt in American society today. Alumna Connor
Vetter (Wofford '14) directs this gripping drama.
Admission for this show is free, but seating is limited! Free tickets will be available in the downstairs lobby of the Rosalind Sallenger Richardson Center for the Arts starting at 7 p.m. each evening. No late seating will be permitted.
