The 23 artworks in Repetitions were selected from the permanent collection of University Galleries. With dates ranging from the 19th century to the early 21st, these paintings, prints, photographs, textiles, and sculptures each depict repetitions or were created through repetitious processes. Taken altogether, they present an opportunity to consider the ways art can be a tool for identifying difference within sameness and sameness within difference. Artists include Edith Altman, Dmitri Baltermants, Ilse Bing, John Clem Clarke, Alan Cohen, Adam Farcus (B.F.A. 2006), Leonard Freed, John Himmelfarb, Ken Holder, Jasper Johns, Fay Lee (B.F.A. 1986), Jacques Lowe, Sister Meg Majewski, Rodney Ripps, Brandon Siscoe (B.F.A. 2012), Jack Solomon, and Joan Sterrenburg. Also included are works by unknown Panamanian and Tibetan artists.

A Conversation Between... is organized by Bloomington High School students who are members of University Galleries’ Teen Art Group: Elyahna Miller, Miette Smith-Golwitzer, Clien Kitchens, and Sharini Menon. The students developed the concept, theme, checklist, and layout of the exhibition. Hoping to chart layers of influence among artists, the Teen Art Group has selected five artworks from University Galleries’ permanent collection to serve as the basis of the exhibition. These include a mixed-media drawing by Alan R. Atkins (M.F.A. ’24); a collaged painting by Erin Hayden (B.F.A., B.S. ‘13); a lithograph by Wonsook Kim (B.A. ‘75, M.A. ’76, M.F.A. ’78, honorary doctorate of arts ’19); and photographs by Jade Nguy ễ n (M.F.A. ’24) and Rafael Soldi.
