Due to the ongoing impact of hurricanes Helene and Milton, USF CAM is postponing the screening and conversation for Antoni Muntadas and Marshall Reese's film Political Advertisement 1952-2024. We hope to reschedule at a later date.

Facebook Event

For 40 years, Antoni Muntadas and Marshall Reese have been compiling a video history of presidential campaign spots that follows the evolution of political advertising from its beginnings in 1952 to the present. The feature length video is an engaging critique, without voiceover commentary, highlighting how campaign ads manipulate public perception and affect voter behavior.

Following the screening, Christian Viveros-Fauné, CAM Curator at Large, will moderate a conversation between artists Antoni Muntadas and Marshall Reese and Joshua Scacco, Director of USF’s Center for Sustainable Democracy and Associate Professor in the Department of Communication.

Bring a lawn chair or blanket and join us at CAM for a free film screening of The Florida Project. Pre-movie popcorn and snacks will be served at 6pm, and the movie starts at 6:30 outside on the lawn.

The story follows the local children as they make the most of their surroundings in an environment dominated by nearby Disney World, code-named "The Florida Project". Filmed in Florida, and written and directed by Sean Baker and Chris Bergoch, The Florida Project stars Willem Dafoe, Bria Vinaite, Brooklynn Prince, with Valeria Cotto, Christopher Rivera, and Caleb Landry Jones in supporting roles.

Skyway 2024: 12 Ways of Looking at a Landscape Closing Celebration Reception

7-9pm, USF Contemporary Art Museum, CAM

Join us to celebrate Skyway 2024: 12 Ways of Looking at a Landscape, USF Contemporary Art Museum’s contribution to Skyway 2024: A Contemporary Collaboration, a concurrent multi-venue exhibition that profiles the best new art in the Tampa Bay region. Other institutions participating in Skyway 2024 include The John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art, the Museum of Fine Arts, St. Petersburg, the Sarasota Art Museum, and the Tampa Museum of Art.

Skyway 2024: 12 Ways of Looking at a Landscape features artworks by Elisabeth Condon, Keith Crowley, John Gurbacs, Karen Tucker Kuykendall, Caui Lofgren, Bruce Marsh, Eric Ondina, Sebastian Ore Blas, Andrés Ramírez, Bradford Robotham, Erin Titus, and Susanna Wallin. Their artworks focus on a wide-open notion of landscape, invoking both the particularities of place and the universal ideas they provoke. Their wildly varied representations give sharp-eyed evidence of a common territory—the rich artistic landscape of a cultural region that has very much come into its own.
