In this week's art column by Michael Paglia, the Westword art critic writes that the images in Out Figured -- which closes after Saturday, April 7! -- raise "disturbing, or at least edgy, philosophical, sexual, psychological or sociological issues."

Below are a few images from the exhibit at Metro's Center for Visual Art that "represents the swan song for curator and center director Jennifer Garner, who's returned to Metropolitan State College of Denver to resume teaching full-time as an associate professor in fine arts.

After you view the images below, make sure to finish reading Paglia's column on Page 29 of this week's issue, or here: "Facts and Figures."

And go see Out Figured in-person before it's too late. The Center for Visual Art is located at 965 Santa Fe Drive, its phone number is 303-294-5207 and its website is www.metrostatecva.org.
