Inforifices, an exhibition by Jeremiah Teipen, features new works that aestheticize the processes by which we consume (and digest) large amounts of visual information. Teipen creates mesmerizing experiences that mirror our current hyper-saturated mediascape, but also allow the viewer to transcend it.

Puzzle Project

Puzzle Pieces are $10 each
Pollak Gallery
We invite you to be part of the Monmouth University Puzzle Project, a collaborative group art exhibition. Participants purchase a 24″ x 24″ universal puzzle piece and then turn it into a unique work of art. When the piece is complete it is inserted into the puzzle, which will continue to grow over time on the walls of the Pollak Gallery. The University’s puzzle will eventually be added to over 5,000 other pieces for an exhibition in New York City. This project is co-sponsored by the Student Activities Board and the Center for the Arts.
The Puzzle Installation & Collaborative Project is a growing & traveling, group art exhibition. It was initially sponsored by the Monmouth County Arts Council and was created and developed by the artists Tim Kelly & Sandy Taylor (MCAC) and Marie Maber (Brookdale Community College) for the 2009 Teen Arts Festival at Brookdale. Click here for more information about the project.
To purchase a puzzle piece please come to the Pollak Theatre Box Office or email at SAB@monmouth.edu.

Admission compliments of Monmouth University
Imaginative, vibrant, and saturated with the rich colors of South Asia, Samina Quraeshi’s photographs, calligraphic works, and mixed media montages reflect the diversity of Islamic expressions of faith. Her work is a creative response to the experience of pilgrimage to the Sufi shrines in the Indus Valley. The images evoke the music, dance, and acts of faith that animate these sacred spaces.
