Robby Brown 'Black History Month' Exhibit
Morehead State's Department of Communication, Media, Art & Design is hosting artist Robby Moore's "Black History Month" exhibition at the Golding-Yang Art Gallery.
"Black History Month" touches on the heritage, fears and frustrations West Virginia-born artist Robby Moore experienced growing up Black in Appalachia. His art conveys his family's personal stories and history while sharing the fear of losing hope, rights or even life. Moore's mixed-media pieces also cover the themes of covering up both racial atrocities and the success of minority groups.
The exhibition runs weekdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. through Friday, Sept. 27. There will be an artist reception from 5 to 7 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 18. The exhibition is open to the public.
The Golding-Yang Art Gallery, located within the Claypool-Young Art Building, is a pivotal educational and cultural component of the Department of Communications, Media, Art & Design, the Caudill College of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences, the MSU campus and the community at large. The gallery hosts opening receptions with live music and refreshments, readings and book signings, interdisciplinary events with inter-college and community partnerships, student performances, forums, and workshops. Participatory projects are vital to gallery programming, including live performances and interactive artworks, installations, and mural projects.
