Alumna Linda Lighton’s (‘89 Sculpture) exhibition “Linda Lighton: Love & War, A Fifty-Year Survey, 1975-2025” is a powerful body of subversive ceramic sculptures that explore desire in all its complex forms. Her work uses wit and seduction as conceptual weaponry to mine the relationships between s*x, power, and politics.

This exhibition is on display at the until May 3, 2026. You don’t want to miss out on this exhibition.
