Conversation II: Place-Kansas
Emily Stamey, curator
April 1, 2008–June 3, 2008
20/21 Gallery, Spencer Museum of Art, University of Kansas, Lawrence, Kansas

These eight conversations present the work of artists who engage Kansas in their creative process. Individuals from the KU and Lawrence communities have responded to each artist, and to his or her work.

We invite you to reflect on these conversations and to engage in them yourself. What are your own conversations with the place called Kansas?
