October 17 – December 10 – “Beloved Daughters: The Photographs of Fazal Sheikh” – Van Every/Smith Galleries, Katherine and Tom Belk Visual Arts Center – This exhibition brings together photographs and text from Fazal Sheikh’s two most recent book projects that explore the lives of women in India. [Note from the Editor: I have attended this exhibit and highly recommend it. However, there are some pictures that are probably too graphic for small children. It is a powerful statement on Indian culture as are the two books by Fazal Sheikh that are the basis for this display.]
The Every/Smith Galleries are open weekdays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and weekends from noon to 4 p.m. Programs are free and the public is welcome. For information, call 704.894.2519.
