Chris Jordan: Running the Numbers
January 28 – April 4, 2012 (closed March 9 – 18)

Chris Jordan is an internationally acclaimed artist and cultural activist based in Seattle. His work explores contemporary mass culture from a variety of photographic and conceptual perspectives, connecting the viewer viscerally to the enormity and power of humanity’s collective will. Edge-walking the lines between art and activism, beauty and horror, abstraction and representation, the near and the far, the visible and the invisible, his work asks us to consider our own multi-layered roles in becoming more conscious stewards of our complex and embattled world. Jordan’s works are exhibited and published worldwide.

In conjunction with Chris Jordan: Running the Numbers, the Museum of Art and the UNH Sustainability Academy has announced a UNH Student Image and Video Contest: What Sustainability Means to Me. The goal of the contest is to create a collection of thought-provoking videos and images showcasing the sustainability commitment and actions UNH students are undertaking and to make these videos and images available to the public.

Chris Jordan: Running the Numbers is co-sponsored by the UNH Sustainability Academy and the Museum of Art, with additional support from The Carsey Institute, The Office of Inclusive Excellence Initiatives, The Office of the Provost, and The Center for the Humanities, UNH. All works are courtesy of Kopeikin Gallery, Los Angeles.
