Art Exhibition: We Believed in Nothing II
Dec. 9, 2019 (All day)
We Believed in N0thing; Chapter Tw0, which follows up on a previous exhibition similarly named, explores the potential of black and white film photography. Fourteen student artists are united in their commitment to black and white film photography as a potent medium. They work to create in-your-face, beautifully brutal, stark, and darkly humorous images of their lives. These artists explore what matters to them: death, rebirth, metaphysics, diversity, queer pride, sensuality, and the importance of home--their lives on ruined streets, in overgrown backyards, in abandoned lots, and in uncanny suburban houses of Las Vegas. This exhibition of images by photo-based artists, from UNLV Freshman through BFA students, presents work shot with 35mm, medium format, 4" x 5" analog film, and printed as traditional silver prints. Their stylistic approaches range from staged, surrealist imagery to documentary photography.

Inquiry II: The Art of Scientific Discovery Exhibition
Dec. 9, 2019, 8:00am
"Inquiry II: The Art of Scientific Discovery" brings College of Sciences together with UNLV Galleries for an exhibit of images and objects related to UNLV research. There is tremendous beauty in the natural world, from witnessing the birth of the most distant galaxies, to seeing the smallest details of life on Earth, to examining the striking complexity generated by simple mathematical expressions. Often this beauty is overlooked because the technical nature of science requires that the communication of its results be done in the form of rigorous mathematical formulae, graphs that convey the results of complex data analysis, and language that has specific and narrow meaning. Yet, it is mankind's observations of the natural world that inspire artists in their work, poets in their words, architects and musicians in their crafts, and scientists in their efforts to understand humanity's place in the universe.
