For too much, his installation at Rice Gallery, artist Michael Salter has wrapped the walls with his personal icons and pictograms. Leaning against one of the walls is a massive, slouching Styrobot built from environmentally unfriendly Styrofoam. Visitors can join the Styrobot in experiencing Salter’s take on the “tidal wave of imagery that our visual culture crashes down upon us everyday.” Free admission and parking nearby. On view November 6 – December 14, 2008. More information at www.ricegallery.org
More about Rice University
Rice University
Rice is a private, independent university dedicated to the "advancement of letters, science, and art." Occupying a distinctive, tree-shaded, nearly 300-acre campus only a few miles from downtown Houston, Rice attracts a diverse group of highly talented students with a range of academic studies that includes humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, engineering, architecture, music, and business management (graduate study only). The school offers students the advantage of forging close relationships with members of the faculty and the option of tailoring graduate and undergraduate studies to their specific interests. Students each year are drawn to this coed, nonsectarian university by the creative approaches it historically has taken to higher education.Post a Countdown Widget
