If you haven’t seen the latest Focus Gallery installation yet, Poetry Month is a great time to stop by and check it out. Organized by students from recent OU Exhibition Preparation and Presentation classes, it tells the story of cultural exchange between the state of Oklahoma and the East African nation of Ethiopia over the past 50 years. In addition to paintings, photographs, and archival material, the exhibit includes a poem by featured artist Gabre Kristos Desta.

The Focus Gallery will be on view until late summer. Thanks to the student curators and their instructor, Emily Burns of the Charles M. Russell Center for the Study of Art of the American West, for all their hard work on this project!
