Friends University will host a Final Friday reception featuring Aaron Krone, Friends University assistant professor of art. The reception will take place in the Riney Fine Arts Gallery in Riney Fine Arts Center Feb. 23 from 5 to 7 p.m.
Influenced by the artwork “Nude Descending a Staircase, No. 2” by Marcel Duchamp, Krone particularly enjoys images of individuals in the middle of processes or actions.
“In photography, motion blurs are often seen as ruined or wasted images because the face is out of focus or distorted due to the action, but I enjoy the ambiguity of these happy accidents,” Krone said. “The uncertainty of who the subject is and the focus of the action and emotion displayed is what I’m interested in.”
The show will be on display through Saturday, March 24.
The opening reception is free and open to the public and will take place in the Riney Fine Arts Gallery at Friends University, 2100 W. University Ave., Wichita, Kan.
