Event Details
Please join us in the Schneider Hall Galleries for the opening of Between Flesh & Matter on Thursday May 7, from 4 - 6 p.m.
Between Flesh and Matter: Biomorphism in Analog Photography unites the fine art photography from University of Louisville Photographic Archives. Through the biomorphic qualities of the black-and-white photography, the exhibition explores the extension of the male gaze and its projection onto inanimate matter. Photographs like Edward Weston’s Two Shells and Pepper No. 30 and Ashley Gallahar’s Untitled are courted with intimate compositions of the feminine body. The exhibition invites us to question how cultural frameworks shape our interpretations of flesh and matter.
This exhibition is curated by Hite Critical and Curatorial Studies Student Amulya Priya Ankem and will be on view May 7 - July 31, 2026. The gallery and events are free and open to the public! please join us.
