News Marlboro College Senior Presents Art Exhibit: Hypostasis

MARLBORO, VT - (April 8, 2008) - Marlboro College senior Emily Tate will present her art exhibit, Hypostasis, which will be on display from Saturday, April 12 through Saturday, April 19 in Marlboro's Drury Gallery.

Hypostasis is one component of Tate's Plan of Concentration, which focuses on aesthetics and art education. The exhibit is a collection of abstract paintings highlighting the colors, textures, and patterns of nature. The works were painted with the philosophy that art informs and expands perceptual experience.

"I have tried to find a balanced place where things have a material and physical presence along with an irrational and supernatural presence," says Tate. "My intention was not to give the subject the same life it already had, but to find it a new life, a new way of being present in the visual world."

The Drury Gallery is open Sunday through Friday, 1:00- 5:00PM. Admission to the exhibit is free and open to the public.
