“CURVE!,” Brandon University’s exhibit in the FLASH Photographic Festival, is on display this month at the Curve Gallery in BU’s John E. Robbins Library. This is the first time in its 10-year history that the FLASH Photographic Festival is expanding outside Winnipeg to become a province-wide, month-long celebration of Manitoba photography and lens-based art. Brandon University is highlighting 16 works by nine BU students and employees. Brought together, these works explore themes of energy, nature, grief and memory. The exhibit can be viewed at any time during library hours.
