Overview

Join the Grinnell College Museum of Art for the opening of Rhizomataic Intimacies: Photography from the Collection of Keith Jantzen '80 and Scott Beth. Refreshments will be served. Curated by 12 students in Professor Michael Mackenzie’s exhibition seminar, Rhizomatic Intimacies explores themes of intimacy through portraiture, landscape, and the body. In botany, rhizomes are root systems of multiple, seemingly independent plants that are connected below ground. Here the word suggests surprising thematic connections between artworks. The exhibition is drawn from the photography collection of Keith Jantzen ’80 and Scott Beth, which includes images by Diane Arbus, Johnnie Chatman, Peter Hujar, Robert Mapplethorpe, and Alfred Stieglitz, among others.
