The Anderson Gallery is pleased to show the work of Judy Pfaff, an internationally recognized artist who is often cited as a pioneer of installation-art and contributor to the Pattern and Decoration Movement. The solo exhibition, Freehand: Prints and Drawings by Judy Pfaff, showcases over 50 drawings and prints and is on display from Sept. 7 through Oct. 15. There are multiple events associated with this exhibition including an opening reception on Sept. 7, an exhibition tour on Sept. 21 and the premiere of the immersive opera Cadence of Life by Nathan Felix, inspired by the work of Pfaff on Oct. 5. The Anderson Gallery does not charge admission and all events are free and open to all. Freehand is supported by a grant from the Iowa Arts Council.
