The University of Lethbridge Art Gallery  will Snap Crackle  and Pop for the next month with their  new exhibit .
“The exhibit  explores  images found in pop art, mostly found in TV or print, and explores  the ways they look at politics,” said University of Lethbridge art gallery’s Jane Edmundson. The exhibit features  several artists with southern Alberta roots including Christopher Moore, Lisa Brawn, Dave and Jenn, Jason Mathis, Len Komanac plus Shanell Papp in the main gallery,  runs Jan. 15- Feb. 26.
 Leading up to the event is  the  opening reception, Jan. 15  from 4 p.m.-6 p.m.
“A lot of  the pieces are based on images  of war and disaster in the media. i these images are pretty pervasive so a lot of the artists are examining that,” she said .
“Pop art examines these issues,” she said.
A variety of mediums have been used by the individual artists. There  are woodcut prints, sculptures, paintings, crochet and  fabric art as well as multi-media art.
The opening  reception for the exhibit is from 4-6 p.m., Friday, Jan. 15
