SUMMARY:Worlds Within
DESCRIPTION:Co-curated by School of Art Professor John Carson and Lugene Bruno\, Worlds Within is on view at the Miller Gallery from September 23 to November 12 and at the Hunt Botanical Institute from September 22 to December 15. \nWorlds Within is a unique collaboration between the Hunt Institute and The Miller Gallery. The two venues\, at either end of the Carnegie Mellon University campus\, will be exhibiting work by British artist Rob Kesseler\, alongside 19th-century botanical wall charts from Carl Ignaz Leopold Kny’s series Botanische Wandtafeln. Complementing the forms represented in these charts and photographs will be a selection of models of marine organisms made of glass in the 19th-century by Leopold and Rudolf Blaschka and made of glacite in the early 20th-century by Edwin H. Reiber. The glass models have been kindly loaned by the Carnegie Museum of Natural History. \nThe work in the Hunt Institute offers a more comprehensive comparison between the micrographs and the historical charts and models\, while the Miller Gallery exhibition features a fuller range of Kesseler’s recent art work. Both sections of this joint exhibition celebrate the extraordinary aesthetic interrelationships between historically different methods of visually interpreting the wonders of botanical phenomena\, which are not readily visible to the naked eye. \nMore information

SUMMARY:Hadi Tabatabai: Transitional Spaces
DESCRIPTION:Co-presented by wats:ON? Festival\, Transitional Spaces is on view September 23 to November 12. \nThrough an elegant combination of drawing\, painting and sculpture\, Hadi Tabatabai’s work describes a place that is as much an idea as a physical location. These compositions embody liminality: that is\, they create a constant experience of sensations that exist at the limen\, or edge\, of perception. To bring about this state\, Tabatabai has removed all possible distractions. Narrative and figuration\, even figure and ground\, have been excised from these delicate combinations of squares\, rectangles and floating lines. \nTabatabai uses the physical nature of the materials to create subtle shifts within the surface plane.  The lines are delineated by slightly raised or lowered edges of materials to create works that straddle the realm of the pictorial and the sculptural.  Through the use of light and shadow\, depth of field\, and other optical obfuscations\, the positive and negative space in the paintings becomes indeterminate.  His work evokes the relationship between what is imagined on the surface and what is actually rendered—in a sense questioning what is being “looked at” or “seen.” \nFor the past twenty years Tabatabai has devoted his attention to a very tiny area—an area that comprises the physicality of a line and functions as the transitional space between two entities. He views the ‘line’ as empty space without an agenda or allegiance; it is neither here nor there. Tabatabai believes that by paying attention to this tiny\, subtle\, yet detailed space\, one is forced to turn away from the outside world and focus inward on one’s own interior space. \nMore information

SUMMARY:Hadi Tabatabai: New CFA Installation
DESCRIPTION:Coinciding with his exhibition at the Miller Gallery\, Hadi Tabatabai presents a new original installation in the College of Fine Art Great Hall for the wats:ON? Festival.

SUMMARY:Dine in the Dark: a Dinner pARTy
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Statement\nDinner pARTy is a community engagement project in the form of a series of dinner events on CMU’s campus by undergraduate students Daniel See (BHA’19)\, Sarah Stinson-Hurwitz (BHA’18)\, Faith Kaufman (BD’18)\, and Nick Boston (BS’18). Our goal is to organize a unique dinner party every month to create inclusive experiences and thought-provoking conversations\, while promoting a greater sense of diversity\, intimacy\, and community across various social circles and campus sub-communities. \n \nFor this month’s Dinner pARTy\, we organized a smaller dinner party with just 10 randomly chosen strangers from the CMU community\, including students\, faculty\, and staff. The guests ate and interacted with other guests in the dark\, creating an environment and conversation free from bias that comes so easily from judging appearances. \nWe invite you now to listen to the conversation conducted during the dinner.

SUMMARY:Summer Leavitt: We have a future\, perhaps.
DESCRIPTION:The Frame Gallery presents a solo exhibition by senior Summer Leavitt with an opening reception on November 10\, 6-9pm. \nExhibition Statement\n“In the absence of institutionalized documentation or in opposition to official histories\, memory becomes a valuable historical resource\, and ephemeral and personal collections of objects stand alongside the documents of the dominant culture in order to offer alternative modes of knowledge” *an Ann Cvetkovich quote featured in Queer Times\, Queer Becomings* . Also featured in Queer Times\, Queer Becomings are references to the Derridean archive fever\, “to be en mal d’archive (in need of archives) is not just to desire a past\, but to burn with a passion for origins; a nostalgia\, a homesickness.” This show is a collection of seeking origins and creating\, documenting\, archiving moments of my own queer existence and queer desire to prolong them\, find representation\, take myself into the future. Thinking about time and erasure\, these works are a declaration and affirmation of my existence\, constructing a narrative in which no matter what the future is\, I\, as a queer person\, can still exist.”
