This exhibition expands on the forthcoming issue of the artist-run journal Effects, organized around the motif of the hole. Holes draw our attention to the periphery, the edges of the visible, bringing to the fore what typically disappears into the margin. Through rips and shadows, enclosures and erasures, the included artworks address transience, destructive violence, and lost histories, while also evoking the nascent formation of as-yet-unknown patterns for meeting the problems of living — with ourselves, with one another, and with absence.Featuring work by Noel Anderson, Milano Chow, Mary Helena Clark, Clementine Keith-Roach, Lakshmi Luthra, Eric N. Mack, Nour Mobarak & Jeffrey Stuker, Christopher Page, Paul Pfeiffer, Adam Putnam, Larissa Sansour & Søren Lind, Paul Sietsema, and Patricia TreibOpening reception Wednesday, Sept. 24, following the 4:30pm Art LectureCurated by Lakshmi Luthra, Associate Professor of Art and Film & Media StudiesLearn more about the exhibition*Please note: Weekend hours are dependent on the availability of student monitors.

Climate Change, Ecological Drought, & Wildfire in the Pacific Islands, presented by Abby Frazier, assistant professor, Clark University.The Pacific Islands are on the front lines of global climate change and are already experiencing changes and impacts. Droughts in the Pacific Islands can be extremely severe, causing drinking water shortages, extensive crop damage, and increases in the size, severity, and extent of wildfires that burn incredibly large percentages of island land areas. This talk will describe how the climate is changing in the Pacific Islands region with a focus on ecological drought and wildfire. Over the last century, drought duration, magnitude, and frequency have all increased significantly in Hawai‘i, which has had severe impacts on native ecosystems. Drought increases the likelihood of wildfires, and the amount of area burned each year in Hawai‘i has increased, largely due to the increase in unmanaged non-native grasslands and shrublands. Climate services that provide actionable climate information to end users are more important than ever in building resilience to wildfire and drought.

William FitzOsbert, aka Longbeard, was a Londoner who fought on the Third Crusade and, on his return, led protests against the city authorities until they had him killed. His life was tragic, and his death futile. Over the centuries that followed, however, his story was retold in sometimes odd ways. Until eventually, he may have contributed something to England's favourite legend.Presented by Alan Cooper, associate professor of history and director of Medieval and Renaissance Studies ProgramRefreshments provided.All are welcome.
