NextNOW Fest: Video in the Atrium (ViTA) by Cristina Lucas • UMD Art Gallery

Organized by the UMD Art Gallery, this new program aims to bring art outside the walls of the gallery and activate an underutilized section of the Parren J. Mitchell Art-Sociology Building’s large atrium and gathering space. The first in the series will be The People That Is Missing (2019) by Spanish artist Cristina Lucas, a video work that underscores the most devastating effects and consequences of climate change.
