Moving Past Present

In its examination of the current socio-cultural climate, Moving Past Present, offers a view into the window of our times—one in which an interlacing transmission of ideas, space and thought, is an attempt to capture an elusive reflection of the future. Drawing from both historical and contemporary works of art from the Ruth Chandler Williamson Gallery at Scripps College, the Pomona College Museum of Art, along with works from local artists and Los Angeles galleries, Moving Past Present, explores the liminal space created by moments of uncertainty, ambiguity, and rapid structural change. Bringing together the singular and combined energies of over 30 visual works, produced across a range of mediums, including works on paper, sculpture and new multi-media pieces, Moving Past Present, is an attempt to create an open dialogue regarding the intersection between personal and cultural conditions.
