Bly Pope and Rowan Pope

Faculty members Rowan and Bly Pope will be featured in an upcoming exhibition at the Burnet Gallery in Wayzata.

The exhibition, Open Skies, will feature their hyper-realistic charcoal drawings. According to the brothers, "the works in this exhibit embody our belief that the mundane is miraculous, the ordinary is extraordinary, and the commonplace is singular and sublime. The landscapes are empty of human presence, and are meant to celebrate the majesty and grandeur of a country filled with the natural beauty we often overlook in our routine, insulated daily lives."

Open Skies: New Works by Bly and Rowan Pope
December 9–January 28
Opening Reception: December 9, 5:00–8:00 p.m.
Burnet Gallery (Wayzata, MN)

This is the ancestral homeland of the Dakota and Ojibwe people, who were forcibly exiled from the land because of aggressive and persistent settler colonialism.
