I’m pleased to share that the opening
for the first exhibit in the Neil Britton Gallery for the fall semester was
held on Thursday evening. “A Feast of Languages” is an exhibition of works by
local artists active in Norfolk’s NEON Arts District and the ViBe Creative
District in Virginia Beach.
According to VWC’s Batten Associate
Professor of Art and Coordinator of Art Exhibitions John Rudel, these talented
artists have “prepared a great ‘feast’ of artistic riches, created on site,
reminding us of the richness which surrounds the campus in its prime location
on the border of these creative communities.” The exhibition borrows its title
from Shakespeare’s “Love’s Labour’s Lost” which explores the power and
limitation of language.
This exhibition will be in the Neil
Britton Gallery through December 9, and I encourage you to visit the gallery to
see it. Special thanks to John for coordinating our exhibits on campus.
