Upcoming Exhibits

Spark of Life: Abstraction, Microscopy, and Discovery

October 2024-January 2025

The UNE Art Galleries and UNE’s Histology and Imaging Core present Spark of Life: Abstraction, Microscopy, and Discovery.  The work on view centers around the photography of the University’s imaging lab, in conversation with contemporary artwork. Like the various instruments that make up a chamber concert, the artwork in this exhibit works together to build a complex sense of harmony revolving around a small framework of formal strategies. Each artist, and the scientists behind the imaging examples, are working with a unique voice to communicate a singular idea; each in turn offers us a look at dynamic growth that refers back to the physical world.

Artists include: Jackie Brown, Meg Brown Payson, Carter Shappy, and the scientists of the UNE Histology and Imaging Core.
