Alumnus’s exhibit opens in Gallery 360 today

The first artist to ever have his work displayed in Northeastern’s Gallery 360 is returning to the Ell Hall space for a new exhibit that examines the human form through found objects.

Michael Ulman, AS’00, is a found-object sculptor based in Roslindale, Massachusetts. His exhibit “Wild Ones” marked Gallery 360’s debut in 2008.

On his website, Ulman says he looks for ordinary objects that are destined for a mundane existence and then works to give them a new purpose through his sculpture.

His new exhibit, “Femmes Trouvés,” opens in Gallery 360 on Wednesday and will run until April 24. It features female figurines made from wire, copper, lead glass, and iron. An opening reception is scheduled for Wednesday, March 30, from 5 to 7 p.m. in the gallery.

Gallery 360 is open Monday through Friday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday from noon to 5 p.m.
