General, Opening

Join us for the Panel Discussion and Opening Reception for BORDER AS NETWORK this Saturday, August 23rd✨

Panel Discussion at 5:30pm
Opening Reception at 7:00pm

Panel discussion with the artists in the exhibition BORDER AS NETWORK. Moderated by curator David Taylor. Graduate students will be discussing their experiences in the field course, “Border As Network” and the artwork they produced in response.

This exhibition presents works by MFA students who participated in the fall 2024 field seminar BORDER AS NETWORK. Organized by David Taylor and the U of A School of Art, the course engaged the Arizona/Sonora borderlands as both a unique regional terrain and a contingent landscape transformed by an array of inputs. Among the most biologically diverse regions in North America and a locus of human habitation spanning millennia, the Sonoran Desert borderlands of Mexico and the United States have changed more in the last two decades than in the previous century.
