Otto Wirsching, Vom Totentanz

A portfolio of prints produced during the First World War and based on the German tradition of images of Death interacting with individuals from the various strata of society, Wirshing's graphic images still resonant today. Vom Totentanz is a part of the Wriston Art Galleries' permanent collection.

Hoffmaster Gallery
Kevin Giese, Minnesota Twilight

Milwaukee artist Kevin Giese is inspired by the shapes and processes of nature in his evocative paintings and sculptures that seem both totemic and numinous.

Kohler Gallery

Laura Vandenburgh, all which ways

Laura Vandenburgh says her work "is an attempt at re-location, at triangulating our whereabouts." Activating the viewer's experience of the traditional gallery space through unusal placement of objects, drawings, and paintings, the artist elides the distinction between sculpture and two-dimensional work.

There will be an opening reception for all three exhibitions on Friday, September 27, 2002. There will be a lecture at 6:00 p.m. and the reception with refreshments will start at 7:00 p.m. and run until 8:30 p.m.
