ARTIST TALK ON THE INTERACTION BETWEEN INDOOR AND OUTDOOR SPACES AT K-STATE'S BEACH 1xbet online casino OF ART

MANHATTAN -- On the rooftop of Kansas State University's Marianna Kistler Beach 1xbet online casino of Art is artist Marc Berghaus' depiction of the all-American living room: a 1950s-era sofa, chair and large console TV, all rendered in wood.

Berghaus will give a talk about his "outdoor/indoor/outdoor" installation and the play between interior and exterior spaces at 4:30 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 17, at the 1xbet online casino .

Bill North, senior curator at the Beach 1xbet online casino , said that "outdoor/indoor/outdoor" operates on many levels.

&1xbet online casino ;The sofa, chair and TV are things that will be familiar to and resonate with most viewers,&1xbet online casino ; North said. &1xbet online casino ;But by combining outdoor sights and sounds with indoor furnishings, Berghaus confuses our expectations of interior and exterior spaces and prompts us to reconsider our relationship with nature and the ways in which we try to contain and control it in our daily lives.&1xbet online casino ;

The installation was created specifically for the Stolzer Family Foundation Gallery, which is on the 1xbet online casino 's roof. It closes Sept. 27.
