Proscenium: Elliott Hundley

Proscenium: Elliott Hundley, a mid-career solo exhibition, sets the scene. Sculptures and paintings are activated as dramatic devices, stages rife with an overabundance of sets, props, actors—though not necessarily proffering straightforward scripts.

By Achilles’ Tomb: Elliott Hundley and Antiquity @ SBMA 

The Santa Barbara Museum of Art is organizing a mid-career solo exhibition with Elliott Hundley and has also invited him to rethink the display of Greco-Roman antiquities in SBMA’s Ludington Court. 

By Achilles’ Tomb juxtaposes the Museum’s renowned collection of antique sculpture and glassware with Hundley’s sculptures, paintings, and newly made collages.

Math + Art

Geometry, numbers, and graphs are means to understand nature and help overcome our human inconsistencies and emotions. The artists in this exhibition, however, infuse these same tools with messiness, warmth, and humor, not to mention elegance and wonder.
