Lail\u2019s current exhibition, \u201cThe World We Lost\u201d at Masters&amp;Pelavin in New York, is on view through May 19.<\/p>\n<p>In the tradition of history painting, Lail\u2019s large-scale collages chart the persistent dream and tragedy of our lost Utopias. In Lail\u2019s works, image fragments sourced from communes of the 1960s and 1970s, Modernist structures and idealized communities form the domes and maps of futurist\/architect Buckminster Fuller to examine our persistent strivings and ideological failings \u2014 haunted always by Goya\u2019s disasters and the gritty realities of Courbet. Lail\u2019s works look to a better, once-dreamed future \u2014 perhaps a regained past that never was \u2014 to map a fleeting dream of Utopia.<\/p>\n<p>For more information:<a href=\"http:\/\/www.artomi.org\/\"><br \/>\n<\/a><a title=\"www.artomi.org\" href=\"www.artomi.orghttp:\/\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.artomi.org<\/a><br \/>\n<a title=\"http:\/\/masterspelavin.com\/worldwelost\/\" href=\"http:\/\/masterspelavin.com\/worldwelost\/http:\/\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.masterspelavin\/worldwelost<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Published:<\/strong>\u00a0Fri, 11 May 2012 11:40:21 +0000 by\u00a0t.lail<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Thomas Lail, associate professor of fine arts, will exhibit works at Omi International Arts Center in Ghent this summer.&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2086,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3191","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-accolades"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3191","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2086"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3191"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3191\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3191"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3191"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wpdev\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3191"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
