Exhibition
Previewing: September 8–15, 2026 Opening Reception: Wednesday, September 16, 4–8 pm Artist Talk: Friday, October 2, 7–8:30 pm (Regent Chapel) Featuring a series of meticulously constructed video artworks, Ron Reed’s Numbering Our Days: Time at the Movies is a playful but powerful meditation on how cinema shapes our sense of being in time. Assembled from thousands of clips from feature films, Ron’s works reprocess the temporality of cinema through unexpected ordering principles—dates, times of day, an endless sequence of staircases, etc.—in ways that make conspicuous not only the medium of film but the time of the lives we’re living.
