LSU SCHOOL OF ART

SLOW: SUMMER CONTEMPORARY

ON VIEW: JULY 11–AUGUST 22, 2026
RECEPTION: AUGUST 22, 6–8 P.M.

Embracing “slow” in all registers, LSU School of Art invited artists whose work engages in slow states of being, slow processes, and slow media. The gallery sought work that lingers in drifts and delays; work that dwells in states of stillness and attunement. Resisting efficiency and resolution, we sought immersion into the hum, the grain, the granular—work that cultivates attention through deceleration and degraded signals, work engaging slow, low, and no technology to open immersive states of flow.

All work is available for sale.
