TARYN SIMON: PHOTOGRAPHS & TEXTS This exhibit surveys the work of
contemporary artist Taryn Simon through four major projects: The Innocents,
portraits of men who served time for violent crimes but were subsequently acquitted
through DNA evidence; An American Index of the Hidden and Unfamiliar, images
of sites that are not publicly accessible yet have vital and often disturbing functions;
Nonfiction, photographs of people and places in politically charges areas of the
world; and Contraband, images of illicit items confiscated at JFK airport over a
five-day period. By highlighting the precarious and often unreliable seam between
photographic imagery and definitive knowledge, Simon’s art draws attention to
the habits of inference that affect our understanding of the contemporary world.

“NUNSENSE” The Little Sisters
of Hoboken have a problem. Their
convent cook has accidentally
served a bunch of the sisters a
tainted batch of soup, and several
of the sisters have met their maker.
Prayers are nice, but the surviving
sisters need to raise some dough
for the burials. A bake sale isn’t
going to do it, so the sisters put
on a talent show to end all talent
shows. Jokes, songs and dancing
nuns add up to one of the silliest
musical celebrations ever! Sunset

STYLE, INNOVATION AND VISION: SIX PERSPECTIVES OF A
DESIGN COLLECTION Since the first exhibition in the Brooks Steven
Gallery of Industrial Design in 1993, MIAD has accumulated a significant
design collection for exhibition purposes. Recently the college embarked on

WORKING LEGACIES: THE DEATH AND (AFTER) LIFE OF
POST-INDUSTRIAL MILWAUKEE This exhibition features photos
and histories by David Schalliol and Michael Carriere. The exhibit
uses the contemporary moment to explore the legacy of work in
Milwaukee through documentary photographs and site histories
of former and current industrial facilities in the city, keeping a keen
eye on their present use and local context. The result is a document of Milwaukee’s industrial past and present - and the hopeful
groundwork for its future. From the manufacturing of wind turbines
to tech-savvy urban farms, the demise of a working Milwaukee has
been greatly exaggerated. Grohmann Museum - Man at Work Art
Collection, Milwaukee School of Engineering 1000 N. Broadway;
