Art Building Brian Blackham investigates the nature of illusion in painting by focusing on the formal aspects of value, color, space and light. Although his series of still lifes is in the realist style, Blackham still retains the integrity of the brushstroke on canvas. Reception from 7 to 9 p.m. April 16. The two Mariachi ensembles play both traditional and modern Mariachi genres, while the Marimba ensemble maintains the traditions of Mexico and the Caribbean. This is a concert of highly acclaimed faculty and student choreographers, accompanied by the new work of guest artist Ron Brown.
