Duluth, MN - The Tweed Museum of Art (TMA) at the University of Minnesota Duluth will feature a new site-specific, multi-disciplinary installation in the Sax Gallery by internationally known artist, Sharon Louden, entitled Windows. This solo exhibition brings together sculpture, paintings, music and theatrical lighting for a temporary installation on view from October 22, 2015 – May 29, 2016. Suspended from the ceiling and throughout the gallery, Windows will consist of clear acetate drawings, bright, thin, mirror-like sheets of aluminum, and colored aluminum attached to the walls. A musical component will be added by contemporary classical composer, Andrew Simpson, a Washington, D.C.-based pianist and organist. He will compose a new score to be performed live by University of Minnesota, Duluth, music students the night of the opening. In addition, lighting designer, Arden Weaver, will provide theatrical lighting that will help activate the dynamic character and drama of Windows.
