Open Thursday, Friday and Saturday 12pm-8pm.

The first MFA in Visual Arts group exhibition held in the Mandeville Art Gallery since 2015, NOT NOW BUT NOW features six emerging artists who reckon with the impossibility of now through urgent evocations of past and future. 

Spanning photography, film/video, printmaking, sculpture, drawing, and performance, the works in the exhibition reimagine communal archives and ancestral histories, contest colonial narratives of progress and discovery, and portray the body as defiantly present, undergoing constant movement and transformation.  

Participating Artists:

Deanna Barahona, JAX, Jun!yi Min, Naomi Nadreau, Chanell Stone, Nathan Storey
