Join us for the opening reception of Bodies Invoking Change, a new pop-up exhibition at the McCalla School, opening Tuesday, April 23rd. The opening reception will be held Thursday, March 21st from 4:30-6:30 pm at the McCalla School building (525 North Indiana Ave, Bloomington).
The exhibit is curated by IU graduate students Jessica Ader, Benjamin Cooke-Akaiwa, Aveyah Craver, Lexi Harford, Claire Krienitz, Leandro Martan, Porschia Olson, and Sonja Rogers. The students were enrolled in the Department of Art History’s Spring course, “Curating Museum Displays and Exhibitions,” which focused on African art museum displays as a semester long collaborative project.
The objects on display were loaned from the private collections of Dr. Bárbaro Martínez-Ruiz and Distinguished Professor Emeritus Richard Bauman of the Department of Folklore and Ethnomusicology at Indiana University. Bodies Invoking Change is sponsored by the IU Department of Art History, IU African Studies Program, and the Tanner-Opperman Fund in Honor of Roy Sieber with support from University Collections at McCalla.
