Universal Collection: A Mark Dion Project exhibit, through Dec. 11

Description

Artist Mark Dion is renowned for his ''cabinets of curiosities'' that incorporate found objects from richly diverse sources. During a semester as an artist-in-residence at Vassar College, he created such a cabinet with objects curated from various collections at Vassar. The result is the site-specific installation Universal Collection: A Mark Dion Project, which features a monumental (twenty-three feet tall) cabinet which houses hundreds of objects pulled from all corners of Vassar's campus and history. The exhibition is free and open to the public.
