New Exhibitions at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, NC

Wake Forest University Fine Arts Gallery in the Scales Fine Arts Center at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, NC, will present two exhibitions from Feb. 9 through Mar. 25. In the Main Gallery will be The Entropic Garden, and in the Upstairs Gallery will be the exhibition, Mind Fields.

The exhibition, The Entropic Garden, was curated by Joel Beck and Christian Viveros-Fauné, founders and co-directors of Roebling Hall, an art gallery in Brooklyn, NY. Works in The Entropic Garden explore the dimensions of our highly centralized and complex civilization, questioning whether it can satisfy the requirements of adaptation and accommodation to natural tendencies to keep it habitable and sustainable. The exhibition includes works by Kenn Bass, Christoph Draeger, Robert Kalka and Sheila Moss. An exhibition brochure with essay by Christian Viveros-Fauné will be available.

Showing in the Upstairs Gallery is, Mind Fields, an exhibition of drawings curated by Kathy Goodell, an artist and independent curator living in New York City.

In 1857, Justinus Kerner published his inkblot pictures, a technique with which he had experimented with for decades. These pictures eventually led to the "Rorschach test", used in psychotherapy since the 1920's. The artists included in "Mind Fields" examine bilateral symmetry and Rorschach-like imagery from a variety of vantagepoints.

Artists whose works are included in the exhibition are: Ben and Babat AmHaAretz, Mike Bidlo, Bruce Conner, Kathy Goodell, Mary Judge, John Morris, and Karen Shaw.
