SUMMARY:First Thursday Party & Artist Talk at Gordy Fine Art & Framing
DESCRIPTION:Kevin Campbell: The Puzzle Project features puzzle piece groupings that the artist cuts from plywood and paints individually. Each grouping has a place in a much larger puzzle that could be assembled if all the pieces were brought together. \nThe Puzzle Project is a work of art that has no edge\, and so it can be added onto and ‘grow’ indefinitely. This exhibit will be anchored by a composite image showing what the entire puzzle would look like if it were fully assembled. \nThroughout the evening\, Campbell will be on hand to engage with viewers and answer questions. Light refreshments will be served\, and the public is invited to attend. \nAll of the puzzle groupings are expressions of the interconnectedness of the natural world. Each individual piece is “inherently part of something larger than itself\,” says Campbell\, speaking about the idea that has driven his art for decades. “As it grows\, pieces and groups of pieces are separated and treated as individual works of art.” \nThese groups will be hung and for sale in the Gordy gallery. Those who own a piece of the Puzzle Project will forever have a place in the larger composition. \n“Works of art are often referred to as ‘pieces of art\,’” says Gordy owner Carl Schafer. “For Kevin Campbell\, this is literally true. He is making only one work of art that has many pieces. Campbell has placed no boundaries on his single work of art. It can continue forever and each piece will always have its place.”

SUMMARY:Nora Krug: Belonging
DESCRIPTION:February 19 – June 13\, 2026 \nPlease note: DOMA will be closed February 28 – March 9 for Ball State’s Spring Break. \nEvents related to this exhibition include:\nFebruary 23: Exhibition Overview Tour for educators at 4:00 p.m.\nMarch 11: Public Artist Talk by Nora Krug at 6:00 p.m. (AT SURSA HALL) \n“Images have political power\, and they can change the way we think. Illustrating is also an act of witnessing: images compel us to notice and investigate\, and at their best\, they shed light on and at the same time critically confront the subjects they engage with.”\n—Nora Krug \nAward-winning artist Nora Krug’s powerful graphic memoir\, Belonging: A German Reckons With History and Home\, and her more recent book publication\, an illustrated edition of Yale historian Timothy Snyder’s On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century\, are the focus of an exhibition at the David Owsley Museum of Art. Each book takes inspiration from the artist’s personal experiences as well as the events of history through engagement with deep topical research\, museum artifacts and flea market finds\, vintage photography\, oral histories\, and personal conversations\, with the goal of trying to understand\, reckon with\, and depict the past in order to take something revelatory and useful away from it. \nThe exhibition was organized by the Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge\, MA\, and curated by Stephanie Haboush Plunkett\, Chief Curator.

SUMMARY:Blueprints for Bahay-Bahayan - An Artist Talk with Cheeny Celebrado-Royer
DESCRIPTION:The School of Art invites you to an artist talk with Cheeny Celebrado-Royer as part of our Visiting Artists and Designers series! This talk is free and open to all. \nCheeny Celebrado-Royer (b. Naga City\, Philippines) is a multidisciplinary artist working with found and discarded materials to create installations\, sculptures\, and drawings that explore precarity\, memory\, and displacement. Drawing from decaying architectures and chroma-key aesthetics\, she maps fragments of space—wreckage\, green or blue tape—into constellations of unstable time and place. Her work reimagines drawing as a form of mapping\, assembling familiar-yet-elusive icons into landscapes shaped by liminality. Through building from residue\, she explores what might resemble home—transient\, cartographic\, unresolved. \nShe is currently a studio fellow in the Whitney Museum of American Art Independent Study Program and serves as an Associate Professor in Experimental and Foundation Studies at the Rhode Island School of Design. She holds an MFA from the Maryland Institute College of Art (Mount Royal School of Art). Her work has been exhibited at institutions including the Baltimore Museum of Art\, the Walters Art Museum\, Brattleboro Museum and Art Center\, Columbia College\, Louisiana Tech University School of Design\, and the RISD Museum.

SUMMARY:First Thursday Opening Party @ Gordy Fine Art
DESCRIPTION:Come out and join us for\,  Kevin Campbell: The Puzzle Project features puzzle piece groupings that the artist cuts from plywood and paints individually. Each grouping has a place in a much larger puzzle that could be assembled if all the pieces were brought together. \nThe Puzzle Project is a work of art that has no edge\, and so it can be added onto and ‘grow’ indefinitely. This exhibit will be anchored by a composite image showing what the entire puzzle would look like if it were fully assembled. \nThroughout the evening\, Campbell will be on hand to engage with viewers and answer questions. Light refreshments will be served\, and the public is invited to attend. \nAt 6:15 Campbell will speak about the project and how it has evolved since he began in 1994. \nAll of the puzzle groupings are expressions of the interconnectedness of the natural world. Each individual piece is “inherently part of something larger than itself\,” says Campbell\, speaking about the idea that has driven his art for decades. “As it grows\, pieces and groups of pieces are separated and treated as individual works of art.” \nThese groups will be hung and for sale in the Gordy gallery. Those who own a piece of the Puzzle Project will forever have a place in the larger composition. \n“Works of art are often referred to as ‘pieces of art\,’” says Gordy owner Carl Schafer. “For Kevin Campbell\, this is literally true. He is making only one work of art that has many pieces. Campbell has placed no boundaries on his single work of art. It can continue forever and each piece will always have its place.”
