Portrait: 3 Meters per Second

Friday, August 2, 2002—Sunday, September 22, 2002
Minnesota Artists Gallery
Free Exhibition

A new exhibition by sculptor and installation artist Welles Emerson, "Portrait: 3 Meters Per Second," explores questions about natural phenomena such as wind, waves, and pattern. A portrait of water at a specific moment in time is executed in transulcent rods; two running fences are made of glass tubes, and a sculpture called Skin uses iridescent feathers.

The Minnesota Artists Exhibition Program, an artist-run curatorial department of The Minneapolis Institute of Arts, is made possible by a generous grant from the Jerome Foundation.
