The Art Galleries at California State University, Northridge is hosting two new exhibitions that explore the iconic abstract work of CSUN emeritus faculty Robert Bassler and showcase the diverse experiences of U.S. veterans.

Titled, “Permutations: The Work of Robert Bassler,” the exhibition surveys over 40 years of work by Bassler, who was faculty at CSUN from 1964 – 1997 and passed away in 2022. The show, which runs through Oct. 14, focuses on Bassler’s artwork in abstraction, geometry and transparency from the 1960’s to the 2000’s.

The accompanying exhibit, “The EVAC Project: Experiencing Veterans and Artists Collaboration,” which runs through September 26 at the West Gallery, brings together veterans and visual artists to showcase prints based on the artists’ interpretations of the veterans’ stories.

Both exhibitions will have receptions open to the public on Thursday, Sept. 7, from 5:30-8:30 p.m.
