New Zealand-born Anna Sew Hoy is an interdisciplinary visual artist whose practice is rooted in ceramics, but also includes works on paper, soft sculpture, installation, photography and a myriad of other media. Playful and uncanny, she navigates between figurative and abstract imagery. She engages the modernist avant-garde’s conflicting obsessions with primitivism and the “purity” of sculpture.

Xylor Jane and B. Wurtz is a two-person show highlighting recent work of two important artists who consistently surprise with the simplicity of their means and process. B. Wurtz (b. 1948) makes sculptural assemblages from string, socks, buttons, household implements and plastic bags. Xylor Jane (b. 1963) draws on basic mathematical algorithms to make intricate painted patterns. This exhibition is curated by MFA in Visual Studies Chair, artist and curator, Arnold J. Kemp.

Since the early 1990s, Doug Ischar has worked in sound, video, and photography. Trained as a classical cellist, Ischar began studying art in his thirties, eventually earning a MFA degree from CalArts in 1987. Ischar’s early work, the documentary photographs collected in the series Marginal Waters (1985) and Honor Among (1987), participated in then-contemporary debates around gender and representation, with a particular emphasis on problems of masculinity in American gay male culture. Currently an associate professor of photography at the University of Illinois, Chicago, Ishcar has exhibited at the Museum of Contemporary Photography, Ottawa; Photographers Gallery, London; L.A.C.E., Los Angeles; and Museu de Arte Moderna, São Paulo.
