 Arts + Literature Laboratory is pleased to announce Lynne Allen's new solo exhibition: -fractured-, which will open with a reception on November 2, 2019 from 7-9pm. 

-fractured- references Allen’s own lineage, six generations of Hunkpapa Sioux women, and parallels events occurring today that are not unlike the history of her forebears. Allen’s impactful prints explore climate change, the death of native species both animal and human, and the marginalization and fragmentation of societies through conflict and neglect and what part we as humans play in it.

“I am interested in making art that pictorially expresses a feeling, a sense of loss, a sense of injustice, or a glimpse of an outcome of what may come to pass,” says Allen, “as we cannot live independently from our environment.”

Allen is a printmaker whose work has been exhibited nationally and internationally, and is included in the collections of the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Museum of Modern Art Library, the New York Public Library, New York; the Library of Congress, Washington, D.C., the Springfield Art Museum, Missouri, the Minneapolis Museum of Art, and the Victoria & Albert Museum, London. Allen is currently a Professor of Art in the College of Fine Arts at Boston University.
