Enigmatic Faces at Sherman Gallery

Giselle Blanco-Santana (CAS ’16) hangs her paintings at the Howard Thurman Center for Common Ground for the BU Arts Initiative forum for student art and dialogue, “Race, Identity & Art”. The student exhibit will begin on October 7 at 6 p.m. and will run through October 21. For this set of paintings, Blanco-Santana was inspired by her own experience as a Latino growing up in a predominantly African-American neighborhood. She says she never understood why Mexican and African-American cultures failed to find common grounds although people experienced “mirror situations,” which she illustrated with two girls sitting on opposite sides of a fence in the same poor neighborhood.

A Call for Peace: Abe Fleischer (COM '17) reacts to panels by Japanese artists Iri and Toshi Maruki as part of the Stone Gallery commemorative exhibit for the 70th anniversary of the Hiroshima bombings. The artists, a Japanese couple who visited Hiroshima just days after the nuclear bombing, would produce a series of fifteen panels over the course of thirty years to pay homage to Japanese victims as well as American prisoners of war who perished on August 6, 1945.
