The View From Here: Recent Pictures From Central Europe and the American Midwest

May 22 - July 6, 2003

The View From Here: Recent Pictures From Central Europe and the American Midwest, will be on view at the Ohio Arts Council’s Riffe Gallery May 22 through July 6, 2003. The exhibition includes 84 photographic works by 22 contemporary artists who live and work in Central Europe and the American Midwest.

Curated by Catherine Evans, The View From Here explores the significance and unique role of place in shaping cultural identity. The participating artists have been materially informed by the places in which they live – the cities, towns, and villages of two different but intertwined regions of the world.
