special events:
Reception April 8, 5-7pm in conjunction with
An Uncommon Place: Shaping the UC Santa Cruz Campus at the Sesnon Gallery
Alumni Weekend: Reception and Curators' walkthrough April 24, 5-6pm
The Santa Cruz campus is often said to be “beautiful,” “awesome,” “spectacular”—words that strain to evoke a sense of place for which we lack adequate language. This gathering of historic and contemporary images by professional and amateur photographers accompanies “An Uncommon Place,” at the Porter Sesnon Gallery. It adopts a phenomenological approach, evoking sensory rhythms characteristic of UCSC’s environment—the movement between shadow and light, vertical and horizontal, void and structure, thicket and clearing, formal and improvised uses of the site.
