Art After Dark The Collection

October 17 @ 5:00 pm - 9:00 pm

The Harn will be open until 9 pm on this evening. At 7 pm Dr. Craig Smith from the UF SA+AH (School of Art and Art History) and Dr. Ben Wise from the UF History Department will present “The Collection”—a lecture with Smith and Wise in conjunction with their display of 60 matchbook photographs in the In Our Time: 54th SA+AH Faculty Art Exhibition. Smith and Wise are engaged actively in research investigating social stigma and marginalized communities in the United States and abroad. Their “Collection” will portray the literature, lyrics and legislation used to create and identify particular communities and their associated forms of stigma. Smith and Wise’s art features matchbooks found in the Larry Blagg Gay Club Matchbook Collection stored in Cornell University’s Rare Books and Manuscripts Archive.

Generous support for Art After Dark is provided by Art Bridges Foundation’s Access for All program and a private grant.
