News Release EVENT NEWS / February 24, 2009 Boise State University Visual Arts Center Presents 'Beautiful Terrible: New Work by Amanda Hamilton' Beautiful Terrible: New Work by Amanda Hamilton” will be on exhibition from March 2-20 in Gallery 2 of the Visual Arts Center, located in the Hemingway Western Studies Center at Boise State University. An opening reception will take place from 6-8 p.m. March 6 to celebrate Hamilton’s work and an additional student juried exhibition, “Reflex.” The reception is free and open to the public, and free parking will be available during the reception in the lot between the Liberal Arts Building and the Special Events Center. Amanda Hamilton is an assistant professor of drawing and painting at Northwest Nazarene University. Her new photographs and video reference the phenomena of the disappearance of White Lake in Bolotnikovo, Russia, in May 2005. “Scientists and geologists announced that (the disappearance of White Lake) was a logical explanation due to a series of underground caves that collapsed,” Hamilton wrote in her artist’s statement. And yet the real effect was a reminder that nature is far more mysterious, dangerous and volatile than we admit to each day.” Gallery hours are 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday-Friday and noon-4 p.m. Saturday. For more information, call gallery director Kirsten Furlong at (208) 426-3994 or e-mail kfurlong@boisestate.edu. -30- Media Contact: Julie Hahn, University Communications, (208) 426-5540, juliehahn@boisestate.edu Boise State University is “The New U Rising” with record student enrollment, new academic buildings, additional degree programs and a growing research agenda.
