Hop hosts selection of Hilliard's gritty, multi-paneled works

Ashley Mitchell / The Dartmouth Staff Ashley Mitchell / The Dartmouth Staff Courtesy of DavidHilliard.com Courtesy of DavidHilliard.com Studio art department artist-in-residence David Hilliard did not disappoint a packed Loew Auditorium on Tuesday afternoon when he introduced his exhibition "Highway of Thoughts." Laughter staccatoed his lecture, which included Hilliard's hilarious and often heartbreaking stories of his life growing up in rural Massachusetts as the gay son of long-divorced parents. Hilliard, who received a master's from the Yale University School of Art in 1994, has earned several awards including a Guggenheim fellowship and a Fulbright grant for his photographs, which are characterized by their multi-panel or panoramic form and use of vibrant color and details, according to the artist's web site. The frankness of Hilliard's life stories translates to his photographs in the exhibition, which focuses on his father, an ex-Navy atheist, and mother, a born-again Christian.
