MAN UP! Masculinity in Question
CERRITOS COLLEGE ART GALLERY
Guest Curated by Roman Stollenwerk

October 26 - December 5, 2017
Panel Discussion: Monday, November 13 @ 6-8PM

The Cerritos College Art Gallery is pleased to present "Man Up! Masculinity in Question," an exhibition of artworks that explore and upset assumptions about masculine behavior and challenge accepted ideas about the representation of masculinity. The artists included in the exhibition explore masculinity as a set of performed behaviors and interrogate the relationship between masculinity, identity, gender, and sexuality.

Man Up! is guest curated for the Cerritos College Art Gallery by Roman Stollenwerk, Assistant Curator of the Wignall Museum of Contemporary Art at Chaffey College. The exhibition was originally presented at the Wignall Museum early this year and travels to Cerritos College Art Gallery thanks to the generosity of the curator and all participating artists.

Man Up! features work by Badly Licked Bear (Marshall Astor), Ryan Caruthers, Cassils, Christopher Dacre, Amy Elkins, Steven Frost, Pilar Gallego, Oree Holban, Wynne Neilly, Conrad Ruiz, Devan Shimoyama, and Scott James Vanidestine.
