News happenings and aesthetics have whimsically merged at the William S. Richardson School of Law<\/a> library’s<\/a> third annual art show, “Currents,” featuring 26 artists offering 46 works.<\/p>\n

The exhibit, on display during library hours through May 13, is an eclectic mixture of photographs, paintings, drawings, fibers, woodblocks, collages and even a psychedelic work evoking the 1960s by artist Blaise Domino, who began his career more than 50 years ago.<\/p>\n

Many other pieces include artistic commentary on current events.<\/p>\n

“In an important way this is a vivid response to current events,” said Dean Avi Soifer<\/strong><\/a> in remarks at the March 22 opening reception. “Much of the art has the added benefit of being lovely and\/or provocative at the same time.”<\/p>\n

The exhibit was organized by Brian Huffman<\/strong><\/a>, electronic services librarian, with assistance from the library’s faculty and staff.<\/p>\n
