Opening Reception: Fearsome Fable – Tolerable Truth

March 17, 2023 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Exhibition: Fearsome Fable – Tolerable Truth

Opening Reception

Friday, March 17, 6 – 8pm 

In the interactive installation, Fearsome Fable – Tolerable Truth, Indiana-based artist Tom Torleumke makes a powerful statement on the wasteful nature of our relationship with the earth and envisions what an alternate future could be, if we chose to embrace it.  Viewers are greeted by a contiguous mural of scenes depicting overpopulation and its resulting neglect and abuse of our natural resources. By physically engaging with and moving mural panels, gallery visitors can change the view from a dilapidated wasteland on one side – to the reverse side’s pastel imagery of a brighter and healthier tomorrow.

 

Free Admission

 

The exhibit continues through April 22 with these special events:
Artist Talk—Sunday, March 26, 2:30-3:30pm

 Climate Follies: A collection of short plays
