"this is only temporary" at Loyola's Diboll Gallery



You are invited to attend the Collins C. Diboll Art Gallery's opening reception for "this is only temporary" by Cody Vanderkaay and "Now Showing" by adjunct faculty members from the Visual Arts Department.

"this is only temporary"
CODY VANDERKAAY presents a post-studio investigation linking his ongoing 'Coverup' series to work done in the studio. While traveling by bicycle through various cities, Vanderkaay observed the mismatched relationships between surface and color. The shapes that he discovered depict a generic quality, and yet, to him, looked familiar.

His desire to map these shapes resulted in purposeful outlining of contours with string, thus capturing the precision of the grey painted shapes. As a result, VanderKaay has created large-scale objects that are built from painting, drawing, graphic image and billboard-like constructions.

"Now Showing"
Exciting artwork from Visual Art's adjunct and extraordinary faculty members Cody Vanderkaay, Nancy Sharon Collins, Christopher Derris, Angela Driscoll and Victoria Ryan.

Wednesday, March 5, from 5 to 8 p.m.
Collins C. Diboll Art Gallery
Located on the 4th floor of Monroe Library
Free Admission
