On view October 6 – November 15, 2011

Deeply concerned with our natural environment, Gong Yuebin’s extraordinary installations provoke strong feelings of loss or power. Using the blackened trunks of large trees that were burned in forest fires, the artist creates monumental arrangements that are evocative of stone circles or watching figures.

CLU is fortunate to have Yuebin’s work on display at the flagpoles beside Soiland Humanities Center and inside the Kwan Fong Gallery through Nov. 15. A reception will be held at 7 p.m. on opening day.

Located in Soiland Humanities Center, the Kwan Fong Gallery is open to the public Monday through Saturday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Street parking is by permit only Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Visitor parking is available in the parking lots on Mountclef Boulevard north and south of Olsen Road.
