Viewers from various intellectual  fields (from medicine, to critical theory, and beyond) will be  confronted with the divergent and sometimes contradictory communicative aims of each visual artifact. &nbsp;The inclusion of intelligent contemporary work dealing with representations of the body&#8217;s physical form will allow a deeper and more abstract reading of the scientific drawings, while in turn the scientific drawings will highlight the power of conceptual idiosyncrasy in the contemporary work.<br><br> The ten artists represented in the exhibit span a range of  approaches, from direct, highly-articulated medical illustration, to conceptually-oriented space-based constructions.&nbsp;  Through their explorations, a window into the diverse uses of figurative  interpretation will be opened. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>University of New England Gallery, Portland Campus, February 21-June 14<\/strong>.  <strong>Opening Reception Friday, February 21, 5 &#8211;
