INWARD AND OUT

VISUAL ARTS Looking Inward and Out

New show at Jundt Art Museum inspired by our pandemic lives, and desire to share spaces

Emily Trueblood’s Barrow Street, 1975

Oh, quarantine. A word that has appeared too often within the past year and a half. A word that means everyone is likely fed up with being in their own space and itching to get back out in the world.

Then, finally, some relief was found when people slowly started going back to work and we got to be in a space with other people again, in spaces that were not just us alone with our thoughts.

That’s what motivated Anna Stiles, guest curator for the Jundt Art Museum at Gonzaga’s fall exhibit, Staying Home: Interior Views from the Collection of the Jundt Art Museum, when she was selecting pieces for the exhibit.
