Current Exhibition
The Story of Everything
Doheny Memorial Library, Treasure Room and Ground Floor
September 3 – December 13, 2009
The USC Libraries present The Story of Everything, an exhibition of original artwork by Southern California artists Victor Raphael and Clayton Spada. The artists explore the intersections of astronomy, Kabbalism, evolution, geometry, and countless other subjects. Like latter-day alchemists, they transmute a diverse selection of visual materials into rich, multilayered perspectives on the nature of the universe.
Complementing Raphael and Spada's digital artworks, the libraries present Notes from the Story of Everything, an exhibition of rare books and other materials from our special collections that partly inspired their creative journey. These items continue the artists' explorations of eternal questions—creation and destruction, harmony and strife, infinity and void—that define our existence. This exhibition was curated by Andrew Wulf and Tyson Gaskill.
The USC Fisher Museum of Art presents a 30-year survey of Victor Raphael's work, Travels and Wanderings, 1979-2009, that opened September 9.
