‘Auditions and Curtains’ opens in Albrecht Gallery Nov. 9

Bluffton University’s Grace Albrecht Gallery will host “Auditions and Curtains,” a November exhibition of paintings by artist Chris Hyndman.

Opening Nov. 9, the exhibit is free and open to the public through Nov. 24. Gallery hours in the Sauder Visual Arts Center are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays and 1-5 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays. A reception for the artist will be held from 2-4 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 22.

In Hyndman’s “audition” and “curtain” paintings, plaid-patterned “figures” are staged in front of curtained backdrops. The recent works continue his investigation of color, structured surfaces and the roles of pattern and digital tools in the imaging of contemporary identity.
