Art Encounters: Technology, Innovation, and Obsolescence
September 13, 2025 – April 5, 2026
This exhibition draws upon the knowledge and perspectives of Rollins College faculty to highlight the value of a liberal arts education in navigating the complexities of an increasingly technologized world. Quotes from faculty representing diverse disciplines are integrated with works from the collection to prompt dialogue and deepen understanding of how emerging technologies—such as artificial intelligence, digital surveillance, and automation—are reshaping higher education, human identity, and the boundaries of knowledge itself.
Faculty contributors:
Lucy Littler, Ph.D., Senior Lecturer of English, Senior Faculty Director of rFLA
CoCo Loupe, M.F.A., Adjunct Professor of Dance
MacKenzie Moon Ryan, Ph.D., Professor of Art History
Rachel Walton, M.A., M.L.S., C.A., Librarian, Associate Professor, Head of Library Digital Strategies & Scholarly Communication
