Art Exhibition: Acts of Projection
Acts of Projection was curated by Dr. Maura Lyons and the students of the Drake University Art History program’s Curatorial Seminar. Acts of Projection: Magic Lantern Shows and the U.S. Civil War encompasses both the material artifacts of lantern shows – hand-painted slides and period projectors – as well as actual projections to simulate the original viewing experience. Acts of Projection examines two interrelated definitions of the term projection: using light to cast designs on a surface and the psychological concept of externalizing internal anxiety. It includes a site-specific work by the artist Johnny DiBlasi in order to demonstrate the continuing relevance of the projection format.
The opening reception runs from 5-7 p.m. and light refreshments will be served. Student curators will give a gallery talk at 5:30 pm.
The exhibition will run from November 7, 2024-January 17, 2025. The Anderson Gallery is free and open to all.
