Cornish alumna and Print Studio Supervisor Dawn Cerny is currently featured at the Henry Art Gallery in an exhibition entitled, We’re all going to die (except for you).  Cerny’s elaborate narrative installations of small drawings and works on paper contemplate present day social and political issues by focusing on parallel moments in history. From the Henry’s collection, Cerny has selected Victorian-era mourning garments and 19th-century landscape paintings to be installed alongside her own work. The ensemble provides an extended meditation on American attitudes toward death, trauma, and war past and present. Cerny will be working in the open studio format during the run of the exhibition which closes on April 27.
