STARKVILLE, Miss.--Works by seven nationally known artists are on display through Oct. 19 at Mississippi State's Visual Arts Center Gallery.

Sponsored by the College of Architecture, Art and Design's art department, "Collapse" features imagery and objects by artists Carin Rodenborn, Belinda Blum, Josh Azzarella, Gabbe Grodin, Tiffany Calvert, Julie Evanoff and Ronna Lebo.

The exhibit addresses various middle grounds, asking the viewer to consider loss of structure and the potential new realities that such loss can generate.

On Sept. 1, the artists will speak about their works at 4:30 p.m. in Giles Hall's Robert and Freda Harrison Auditorium. The event is free and open to the public.
