Matt Wedel: On the Verge

Matt Wedel

Engage in the total boundary collapse brought to being in the work of Matt Wedel, LSU School of Art's Reilly Visiting Artist, on display at the LSU Museum of Art. In sometimes remarkably large-scale ceramic works, Wedel explores culture and nature, while pushing materials and forms to their limits—collapsing boundaries visually and conceptually between painting, sculpture, and ceramics. In his creations, there is an almost tangible aura of pressure and burden atop landscape and flowers, eliciting a"poetic narration of collapse". Matt Wedel: On the Verge is on view from April 4, 2019 through September 29, 2019, and is a collaboration between the LSU College of Art & Design, the LSU School of Art and LSU Museum of Art. Support is provided by The Winifred and Kevin P. Reilly Jr. Fund and generous donors to the Annual Exhibition Fund. lsumoa.org
