Explore our events and exhibitions

An education in art goes beyond building knowledge and technical skills, it’s about finding one’s voice, igniting curiosity, connecting with others, making meaning of the present and discovering a place in the world. It is important to celebrate successes together because the experiences and relationships one creates here will inform the rest of their life.

This is not a romance. It is an inquiry into what love becomes under observation: image, transcript, measurement, replay. In translating intimacy into visual data, whether through artificial generation or camera-based capture, the work exposes the instability of emotion when subjected to analysis. The individual's tragedy is structural; each act of capture confirms the disappearance of love.       

Gallery Hours

Thursday – Saturday | 12 to 5 p.m.

First and third Fridays of the month | 6 to 9 p.m.

Closed Sunday – Wednesday and university holidays

You Can't Fool Mother Nature... | Senior BFA Exhibition

March 30 – April 2 | Gallery 100

Opening reception | March 31 | 5 – 7 p.m.

Gallery 100 proudly presents “You Can’t Fool Mother Nature…,” an interdisciplinary Bachelor of Fine Arts exhibition at Arizona State University. The featured artists work in the realms of painting, metalworking, printmaking and drawing, tracing along the fault lines between humanity and the natural world, where logic begins to falter, cycles repeat and change is inevitable. This exhibition lingers in the spaces of the overlooked, revealing hidden relationships, unusual pairings, the invisible realm and microscopic details that go unnoticed by most. Here, familiar forms are reshaped into uncanny creations. Interpersonal relationships also begin to mirror environmental strain, revealing a form of trauma that reaches to the core and ultimately requires adaptation to a harsh terrain. Moments of loneliness and discomfort similarly echo the expansive presence of the environment. Together, these works invite viewers to reflect on transformative cycles, individual and collective accountability and the enduring power of forces larger than ourselves. 

Artists: Nate Baker, Michelle Diaz, Grace Fitzgerald, Noah Kellso, Danny Le, Maddy Longo, Maria Jose Lopez Gonzalez, Lexie Nordhoff, Gwen Scarborough and Sebastian Taglienti

In the Making: Craft, Community & Art Education in the Valley of the Sun

April 6 to 23 | Harry Wood Gallery
Opening reception | April 7 | 5 to 7 p.m.
Community sewing circle | April 11 | 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

"In the Making: Craft, Community & Art Education in the Valley of the Sun" presents individual and collaborative textile works by artists and educators directly connected to the ASU Art Education program. The exhibition asks how teaching and artmaking inform one another, and how shared craft practices and values can deepen both.


Developed over the course of a year through sewing circles and writing workshops, the project frames craft as a mode of research, pedagogy and knowledge-making. It aims to recognize, amplify and strengthen intergenerational exchange among ASU art education students, faculty, new teachers and mentor teachers, creating a place and platform to acknowledge the depth and value of the creative work taking place in K-12 art classrooms across the greater Valley.
