Tom McGovern’s rich photographs of city murals and the vibrant reflections of poet Juan Delgado celebrate the cultural landscape of San Bernardino in an exhibition that runs from April 19th to July 31st at California State University, San Bernardino’s (CSUSB) Robert and Frances Fullerton Museum of Art (RAFFMA). An opening reception for the exhibit will be held Thursday, April 17th at 5 p.m. with a special members-only preview at 4:30 p.m. "Vital Signs” is an exhibition that focuses on the collaboration between McGovern and Delgado, who are both professors at CSUSB. An acclaimed poet, Juan Delgado, teaches in CSUSB’s English department and accomplished photographer, Thomas McGovern, teaches in the art department. The photographs and poems displayed in the exhibition can also be viewed in their recently published book of the same name. The exhibition highlights San Bernardino life, art and culture. McGovern’s photographs of hand-painted murals interspersed with Delgado’s writings explore the city. Together, their works serve as a testament to both artist's fondness for San Bernardino and its people. In conjunction with the exhibition, an artist talk and book signing will be held at the museum on Thursday, April 24th from 3–5 p.m. The museum is open Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Thursday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. It is closed Friday and Sunday. For more information, call (909) 537-7373 or visit the RAFFMA website at http://raffma.csusb.edu.
