Spring/Summer 2004 Events
Berkeley Art Museum
Time’s Shadow —The
show features 50 images from the first decades of photography, when pioneers
of the medium — quasi-scientists
and intrepid explorers — cataloged near and far reaches of the
world, capturing shadows of the ever-fleeting present. Through Aug. 8.
Turning Corners — Five hundred
years of artistic innovation and experimentation are the guiding principles
of this exhibition of works
from Berkeley Art Museum collections. The exhibit demonstrates how artists,
then and now, have turned corners on the mainstream and forged new directions,
in works that delight, challenge, and provoke. Through Aug. 31.
