Gale Memorial Lecture Series
The Gale Memorial Lecture Series was established in memory of Dr. David Gale and his wife Sylvia whose generosity made the series possible.
Since the establishment of the David and Sylvia Gale Endowment in 1993, the Visiting Artist Lecture Series has thrived, and many students have benefitted from the scholarship. Lectures are free and open to the public.

For over 30 years, Muth has been an internationally recognized artist, pioneering the use of light through holography, a passion that began in his teens. After studying art and physics, Muth moved to New York City, where he began exploring holography in 1980, eventually building studios in Telluride, Colorado, and later Santa Fe, New Mexico. In Santa Fe, he pushed the boundaries of large-scale holography, developing innovative techniques to create groundbreaking works that explore the light-space-time continuum.
