Exhibit: Central Valley Portraits

The UC Merced Library is pleased to announce the opening of the multimedia exhibit "Central Valley Portraits," by Yehuda Sharim. The photographs and short films in this exhibit  document the poetic and quotidian in the Central Valley, as lived by the Valley's landscapes, fauna, and people. This exhibit reflects our collective search during such times of compounded calamities for "communal oxygen".  Sharim is a filmmaker, poet, and an Assistant Professor of Performance Studies in the Global Arts and Studies program, as well as Associated Faculty in Critical Race and Ethnic Studies. This exhibit can be viewed on the second floor of the UC Merced Library, and will run from November 1st, 2021 through May 1st, 2022.
