CONCORDIA ART EXHIBITION
Concordia College’s art exhibition “The Sky is Universal” is currently on display through Tuesday, Nov. 23, in the Cyrus M. Running Gallery. A public reception will take place from 4-5:30 p.m. and artist remarks at 4:30 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 3, in the gallery.
“The Sky Is Universal” is a diverse collection of wet-plate collodion photographs. This striking historic photographic process is used in unique ways to engage the viewer and encourage them to consider the complexity of humans and their individual stories.
The artist, Ryan Stander, is an associate professor of art at Minot State University where he teaches photography, directs the BFA program and co-directs Flat Tail Press. Originally from the farmlands of northwest Iowa, Stander is a transplant to central North Dakota. His education alternated between art and theology [MFA from the University of North Dakota, an M.A. in theology from Sioux Falls Seminary (S.D.), and a B.A. in art from Northwestern College (Iowa)]. His research interests reside in conversations of art and theology with memory, place, and landscape.
Gallery hours are 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday and 1-4 p.m. Sunday.
The exhibit and reception are free and open to the public. For more information call the art department at 218.299.4623. Concordia requires masks for all indoor events if social distancing cannot be maintained.
