BASSACABEZA and special interest Alumni Exhibitions

The Emily Davis Gallery is showcasing artistic talent that has emerged from the university to current students and the greater Akron community. These exhibitions give students the opportunity to explore their own possible career in the arts through the lens of contemporary working artists. The two exhibitions will primarily display artwork recently created and curated specifically for the Emily Davis Gallery. Gable known mostly for his paintings will also be exhibiting drawings and photographs. The title, special interest, is a slightly humble and derogatory phrase Gable has been using to emphasize the casual anxiety that runs throughout his recent work. Bartram is an inventive sculptor who will utilize multiple materials and methods for his installation. Installations of sculptures and ceramics are the central focus of his exhibition. He will be displaying some painting as well. BASSACABEZA, roughly translated to “Bass Head,” is inspired by Bartram’s studio experiments with stereo sound and a studio mate’s cabeza taco.
