Amid a polarizing 2020 election season and an evolving COVID-19 pandemic, each participating camera artist has been commissioned to create a slideshow of underexposed communities in the United States. For this show, less is more: the photographic portfolios installed at the USF Contemporary Art Museum are displayed using traditional slide carousels, to evoke the intimacy of family and community slide shows of another age. The exhibition is available to view online at cam.usf.edu. USFCAM remains closed. After USF reopens, reservations will be required to visit CAM, and details will be available on cam.usf.edu at that time. The exhibit runs to December 7. Also at USFCAM : LIFE DURING WARTIME: ART IN THE AGE OF THE CORONAVIRUS An Evolving Online Exhibition at https://lifeduringwartimeexhibition. org. Runs to December 12, 2020 The virtual exhibition, Life During Wartime: Art in the Age of the Coronavirus engages a select company of international artists to respond to the overwhelming realities of the crisis that has gripped the planet since March 5, the date the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. The exhibition takes full advantage of one of the few outlets artists still have—the Internet—during a public health emergency recently exacerbated by the wanton murder of George Floyd by police officers in Minneapolis. It aims to mobilize sentiment, thought and activity around art and its enduring possibilities: its role as a conceptual catalyst, its ability to trigger ideas, stories, conversations, emotions, feelings and mental states. Separately and together, each artist contribution provides a picture of a planet in crisis, now further enraged and victimized by violence, but also images of hope and optimism in the face of a global emergency. The exhibition will continue to evolve with the addition of new artists and materials. Boca Raton Museum of Art: • Jeff Whyman: Out of Nature runs October 7-January 3, 2021. Whyman ceramics are inspired by nature including the shells he collects. His vessels, teapots, and plates retain a semblance of function but are really sculptures. His spouts are twisted, his vases sage and tilt, and his plates are rife with lumpy accretions. Whyman acknowledges the influence of the renowned ceramicist Peter Voulkos who elevated the medium of clay to fine art, and with whom he worked for ten years at his Berkeley, California studio. Unlike Voulkos who added and subtracted elements of his pieces over time, Whyman creates his works all in one moment while the clay is still wet. He uses the wheel to throw his vessels and spontaneously adds materials as sea glass, Chinese crystals, mineral oxides, metal nails, and wood ash to make forms that call to mind rock formations and what one might find on the ocean floor. Boca Raton Museum of Art, 501 Plaza Real, Boca Raton. Info: 561- 392-2500. Virtual programming provides access to everyone beyond gallery walls. t continued on page 13 10 WEST COAST WOMAN OCTOBER 2020
