Adams, MA - Greylock Arts is pleased to announce Dan Rose: Secret Century A multi-location installation of art and artifacts from a time and place familiar, yet unknown.
Dr. Dan Rose is an internationally exhibited artist, with a PhD in cultural anthropology, is professor Emeritus at the University of Pennsylvania School of Design, and is the author of several scholarly books of cultural anthropology, as well as essays, white papers and artist books published by Pure Theory.
Rose has inherited a spectrum of influences that permeate his art ― including the appropriation of “primitive” art, prison art, naïve houses, plastic vehicles and toys from the 70’s and 80’s, self- constructed and modified vehicles and airplanes influenced by 30’s aerodynamic streamlining, and the poetics and science of dirt.
In Secret Century, Rose shows us overlooked and hidden details of the 20th Century as seen through the dual lenses of art and anthropology.
Secret Century will be exhibited in three locations: Greylock Arts, Betty’s storefront, and Pure Theory, Formerly Bob’s Used Furniture, and will include a selection of Rose’s diverse works.
