Embracing Ambiguities: Faces of the Future
Curated by Jillian Nakornthap and Lynn Stromick
January 30 - March 5, 2010
Embracing Ambiguity: Faces of the Future features artworks by ten multicultural artists living and working in the Untied States who are searching for new ways to define identity in a world where labels are often forced upon them. In today's increasingly global culture individuals may describe themselves by gender, race, nationality, sexual orientation, religious beliefs or any combination of these categories. The artists in this exhibition include: Nzuji De Magalhaes, Kip Fulbeck, Nathan Gibbs, Loren Holland, Bryce Hudson, Laura Kina, McCallum and Tarry, Delilah Montoya and Toni Scott.
Nzuji De Magalhaes combines African and American art forms to depict issues of stereotype, myth, ethnicity and politics. The works of Kip Fulbeck, artist, photographer, filmmaker and slam poet have been exhibited in over 20 countries, and featured on CNN, MTV and PBS. Nathan Gibbs' internationally recognized mixed media and web productions explore race and culture issues in the U.S. Loren Holland's symbolically rich oil paintings of Latino and African-American women challenge perceptions of class, race and minority groups. Bryce Hudson's wall sculptures use bold color and shape to represent domination, conflict, separation and harmony among races and cultures. Charcoal portraits from The Loving Series by artist, curator and scholar Laura Kina explore the results of the 1967 Supreme Court case that overturned our nation's last anti-miscegenation law. Artist team Bradley McCallum and Jacqueline Tarry have produced large-scale public projects, performance/sculptures, paintings, photography, video and self-portraiture, exploring issues of race and social justice. Chicana artist Delilah Montoya articulates the experience of minority woman in her photographs and prints. Toni Scott draws upon her African, Native American and European heritage and world travels to produce sculpture, paintings and mixed media installations that represent the beauty and dignity of African American people. Through painting, sculpture, video and mixed media, these artists attempt to answer the question, "What are you?"
Embracing Ambiguities: Faces of the Future
January 30, 2010-March 5, 2010
Opening Reception: Saturday, January 30, 2010, 5-8 P.M.

Reflections By An Armchair Arteologist
A Photographic Retrospective by Mark Chamberlain at Soka University of America
January 21 - May 14, 2010
What began with the curiosity of a stranger in a strange land, eventually led me to an appreciation of the power of the photograph to convey much more than just impressions of what was being shot. While its allegiance to a decisive moment kept me engaged in the Now, I came to appreciate a greater sense of Time itself. Once my explorations extended to the commonplace around me, I found the joy of an archaeologist digging in very rich terrain. This perspective offered the opportunity to actively engage the fleeting present, while reflecting the past, and even alluding to the future. As an arteologist I could also call upon other interests and concerns, without being bound by convention.
-Mark Chamberlain
Reflections By An Armchair Arteologist,Founders Hall Art Gallery, Soka University of America
