The Museum is temporarily closed for expansion construction, but we will be hosting HELIOS: The 6th Annual Public Arts Festival on November 6-7!
This exhibition featuring two ODU Art Department professors will be a conceptual companion to our fall festival, Fantastic Planet.
“Love is in the details.” –Madame Alexander
This fall, the second annual Public Arts Festival at ODU is proud to present Mars: a large-scale sculpture by UK-based artist Luke Jerram.
This exhibition highlights the work of Rhonda Holy Bear (Cheyenne River Lakota). Renowned for her exquisite sculpture, Holy Bear engages in the indigenous tradition of dollmaking, using painstaking micro-beading and other meticulous processes to create her intricate, highly detailed works.
In an intimate pop-up exhibition titled “This will be for thousands of years,” Heather Beardsley presents work from her series “Strange Plants”.
Barry Art Museum presents a jewel box companion exhibition to Luke Jerram’s Museum of the Moon. Waxing & Waning examines views of the moon from the macro and microcosmos alike. The exhibition combines artworks from our own collection alongside works graciously loaned by renowned local artists, The Chrysler Museum of Art, and scientific specimens from the Michael and Kimthanh Lê Digital Theater and Planetarium.
