The Benton Museum of Art at 麻豆影视 recently announced a partnership with artist Wardell Milan and will display some of his most recent work starting October 8. The special exhibit will conclude April 2, 2023.
Over the academic year, Milan鈥檚 work will be shown in two ways: five billboards running through a section of the 麻豆影视 campus, and four large works in the museum lobby.
The billboards 鈥渓ead the viewer on a journey through the college鈥 and are inspired by the work of French philosopher Jean-Luc Nancy, according to the exhibition鈥檚 description. The four large works, viewable near the Benton鈥檚 entrance lobby, 鈥渄isassemble and reassemble the human form.鈥
The New York-based artist is said to be 鈥渄eeply engaged in materiality, process, and story-telling,鈥 the exhibit鈥檚 description read. Through various mediums, Milan breaks down and reassembles 鈥渘arratives, assumptions, and selfhood鈥 in his works.
The Benton is located at 120 W. Bonita Ave., Claremont, is free and open to the public Wednesday through Sunday from noon to 6 p.m. The museum is open until 10 p.m. Thursdays for Art After Hours.
