JUXTAPOSITION—Local photographer Gabriela Ponce contrast two themes—the glamorous and the mundane—in a showing of her recent work now on display through Friday, July 22, in the Gallery at the Art and Music Library. Gabriela Ponce: Photographs 2003-05 is free and open to the public and includes images of men and women in private but stressful moments, such as the one above, part of a series set in a bathroom—a setting Ponce describes as "innocuous yet full of social expectations and implications." Born in Quito, Ecuador, Ponce received her bachelor of fine arts degree in photography from the Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore. She is a member of the staff of the Visual Resources Collection in Rush Rhees Library, also home to the Gallery at the Art and Music Library. For more details and gallery hours, call 5-4476. |
