SUMMARY:Artist Lecture and Art Gallery Reception
DESCRIPTION:The artist Erin Furimsky will be giving a public lecture about her work in Art History Room 111 in the Clark Arts Center at 5 p.m. Immediately following\, there will be a public reception for her solo exhibition\, “Beneath Repetition” at the Rockford University Art Gallery in the Clark Arts Center from 6-8 p.m. \nErin Furimsky’s meticulous details reflect elements of domesticity\, floral motifs\, and calligraphy. The fullness of the ceramic sculptures give the illusion of buoyancy\, complementing the vivid surface treatment. Fragments and layers accumulate organically across the bulbous surfaces of Furimsky’s sculptures\, leaving a sense of order remaining as the embellishments are coupled with linear patterns and blocks of solid color.
