The general public and SLMath visitors are welcome to join us to celebrate our current art exhibit from 5:30-8:00 p.m. at the 2nd floor commons room and deck. This event is free and open to the public. Light refreshments will be served.

About the Exhibit

Marilyn Levin's work is about improvisation, chance and intuitive risk-taking. Architecture and structure are an important part of her visual vocabulary. Her process involves building surfaces with layers of oil paint, pouring and scraping through layers to reveal unexpected color relationships, textures, and reflective light. Her recent work focuses on the unstable times we are experiencing – alienation and environmental chaos.

She has shown at the Weisman Museum, Minneapolis, MN, the Broad Institute at MIT, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art Artists Gallery.
