Unbound Visual Arts (UVA) and the Harvard Ed Portal's Crossings Gallery are proud to present "The Waste Land on Earth?".


This innovative exhibition explores the impacts of a constant cycle of consumption on landscapes and communities. UVA guest curator Caitlin Bowler invited artists to respond to a world shaped by this mindset of disposability. The exhibition is intended to stimulate conversation and discussion about mass consumption -- “getting and spending” -- which has profoundly shaped the modern experience in industrialized societies.


August 8th: Public program and reception from 5:00-8:00 PM at the Crossings Gallery. Come enjoy light refreshments served throughout the evening and a curated music playlist that will bring the art to life. The event includes an artist panel discussion moderated by the curator.
The exhibit features paintings, quilts, sculptures, video, digital and internet, performance, and mixed media.
Featured artists include Agusta Agustsson, Lani Asuncion, Nancer Ballard, Jennifer Costello, Nancy Crasco, Gary Duehr, Mary Gillis, Lynda Goldberg, Muriel Horvath, Tom Jackson, Amy Kelly, Elizabeth Lapides, Madeline Lee, Pauline Lim, Susan Loomis-Wing, Amy McGregor-Radin, Michael McLaughlin, Michaela Morse, Ruth Rieffanaugh, Alexandra Rozenman, Diane Sheridan, Jeannie Simms, Olga Tsetniva, and Huma Yildirim.


The exhibit will be open from July 31-August 21.
The exhibition is open to the public during regular gallery hours: Monday through Friday from 9:00 am - 5:00 pm. The Crossings Gallery is located at 224 Western Avenue, Allston, MA 02134. The Gallery is fully accessible and is served by Boston Blue Bikes and MBTA buses 66, 70, 70A and 86. Automobile and bike parking is also available in the rear of the building. It is also just a 20 minute walk from the Harvard Square Station on the MBTA’s Red Line.
