Metcalf Exhibit

This traveling exhibition showcases the art of Bruce Metcalf, whose work uses small provocative figures and miniature dioramas to convey broader sociopolitical ideas. The installation, as a mediator between the viewer and the work, is structured to provide a specific framework of engagement. The Renaissance model of the Cabinet of Curiosity serves as a spring point, as do 18th and 19th-century optical devices such as the stereoscope and camera obscura.
