The Masks We Wear
March 16 - May 2, 2021
This timely and historically relevant traveling exhibition illuminates the creativity that has emerged from the COVID-19 pandemic. When the virus made face masks a necessary accessory, artists rose to the occasion and with the tools of their trade, took on the challenge of expression and safety. The masks featured in this exhibition have been collected from artists across the world by Cincinnati area art collector Sara Vance Waddell. In addition to 50+ face masks, the exhibition features 25 facial castings by Ohio artist Leslie Lehr Daly.
This exhibition is generously sponsored by the Thomas A and Georgina T Russo Foundation.
