This exhibition of forty-five works, on view in two galleries, acknowledges the sensibility of a discerning art lover and committed friend of the Cantor Arts Center, the late Ruth L. Halperin. Ruth was drawn to works of art based on esthetic qualities of line, texture, and form rather than subject or source. When seen together, the works reveal common attributes across cultures in the design and creation of pleasing and beautifully made objects: a photograph by British artist Andy Goldsworthy and a sinuous iron-wrought form from Nigeria; textural wood sculpture by German-born Ursula von Rydingsvard and a carved box by a Kuban artist; a woven baby carrier from Cameroon and a woodblock print by Japanese artist Kiyoshi Saito.
