Installation image of live performance titled To Move Is To Remember by artist Joseph Liatela. Pink lilies cascade from the top of the image, dangling above two people lying on the floor at the bottom of the image. These two people are holding hands, and both wear bright green short sleeve shirts. The background is black and stained with gold pigmented fingerprints.

Nothing Under Heaven by Joseph Liatela

September 13 – December 9
George Segal Gallery

The artist’s first solo museum exhibition brings together new commissions and recent works that explore the need for connection, pleasure, and agency within oppressive systems. Exhibited alongside photography by Andy Warhol (1928-1987) and religious art by Carlo Dolci (1616-1686) from the University Galleries’ collection, Liatela invokes a range of stories to assess what it means to move together, remember together, and repair together.
