In collaboration with the Department of Anthropology’s archaeology faculty and students, sculptor Randy Regier will give an artist’s talk at 6 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 5 in the form of a staged field demo, beside his outdoor sculpture, The Celestial Mechanic (2018), near the Geology Building. Regier will open the clear dome that encases the partially excavated figure, for a rare close look at the work, discussing his process as it connects to archeological procedures and theories. Everyone is welcome to a free 5:30 p.m. reception.
