CLOSING SOON AT THE MUSEUM OF ANTHROPOLOGY

Gwyn Hanssen Pigott by Lisa Henriques

You still have 8 days left to go see the ceramic work by Australian artist Gwyn Hanssen Pigott mixed with pieces from the Museum of Anthropology's permanent collection. The combinations for "Pleased to meet you: Introductions by Gwyn Hanssen Pigott" have been made by finding unusual combinations as well as using color, form and pattern to unify them.

What makes this an interesting exhibition is the idea that people (and especially the makers of these objects in the exhibition) share similar aesthetics that connect them to each other regardless of their social or cultural backgrounds.

Examples of the work of Gwyn Hanssen Pigott

The exhibition will be open for another little while at the Museum of Anthropology at UBC in Vancouver, BC, closing on March 24th. You better hurry up!
