The exhibition features his black-and-white photographs, included are some of his iconic landscapes, such as “Moonrise, Hernandez, New Mexico” and “Moon and Half Dome, Yosemite National Park, California.” Also featured are photographs from Denali National Park in Alaska and Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming. The exhibition was organized by the Mint Museum of Art, Charlotte, North Carolina.
Traces of Time: Fossils from the Collection
The exhibition explores different prehistoric environments through the use of fossil plants and animals from the collection, and the objects show some of the similarities and differences between earlier earth environments and modern ecosystems. Highlights include fossils from the Green River Formation in the United States and the Santana Formation in Brazil. Also included are flora and fauna that were native to what is now Virginia and the mid-Atlantic region, such as the Pliocene scallop Chesapecten jeffersonius. Organized by the University of Richmond Museums, the exhibition was curated by Matthew Houle, Curator of Museum Collections, University Museums.
Transformations: Inuit Sculptures from the Collection
Inuit sculpture is deeply rooted in tradition, steeped in storytelling, and offers a glimpse into the daily lives of the Inuit people. The exhibition features a selection of contemporary Inuit sculptures, primarily from a recent gift of Virginia A. Arnold to the museum. Organized by the University of Richmond Museums, the exhibition was co-curated by Richard Waller, executive director, University Museums, and Schuyler Swartout, ’11, 2008 Arts and Sciences summer research fellow, University of Richmond.

John Cage: Zen Ox-Herding Pictures
John Cage (American, 1912-1992) was a seminal composer, philosopher, writer, and visual artist whose interest in East Asian and Indian philosophy led him to abandon intention, memory, and personal taste to focus instead on process and chance in music, performance, and visual art. The exhibition features fifty paintings on small paper towels created by Cage in 1988 at the Mountain Lake Workshop, Virginia. Organized by the University of Richmond Museums, the exhibition was co-curated by Stephen Addiss, Tucker-Boatwright Professor of Humanities-Art and Professor of Art History, University of Richmond, and Ray Kass, Professor Emeritus of Art, Virginia Tech.

Organized by the University of Richmond Museums, the exhibition was curated by Elizabeth Stevens, an independent scholar.
