William Lawrence Deverell, Artist of the Corridor Exhibition Public Reception

The City of Urbana invites the public to Recent Work, the latest Artist of the Corridor exhibition featuring drawings by William Lawrence Deverell.

Deverell works in black and white, using ink and pencil with great attention to detail. Through his work, he expresses great interest in grand architecture, intricate forms, and dramatic light and shadow. The exhibition is free, open to the public, and will be on display in the City Building lobby at 400 S. Vine Street in Urbana through January 31, 2013.

A public reception with light refreshments will be held on Wednesday, November 7, 2012 from 4:00 to 5:00 PM in the Urbana City Building Lobby at 400 S. Vine Street.

The City created an art exhibition space in March 2010 to feature artwork by Urbana artists in the City Building.  Artist of the Corridor exhibitions are displayed for a period of three months. As a part of the Urbana Public Arts Program, this initiative works to create a city where all residents engage with the arts in its many forms and where artists thrive and are valued.
