\u201cWillys Jeep\u201d by Lonnie Dewise is featured in the exhibit titled \u201cUniversal Future.\u201d<\/p><\/div>The University of Toledo Department of Art will host two exhibits that explore the theme of \u201cReclaim & Collaborate.\u201d <\/P><\/p>\n

\u201cUniversal Future,\u201d an exhibit created through the collaboration of M12, an artist collective, and UT faculty and students will be presented in the Center for the Visual Arts Gallery on the University\u2019s Toledo Museum of Art Campus, Friday, Sept. 21, through Sunday, Oct. 14. <\/p>\n

The military beginnings of the Jeep are well-known. What is less-known is how this amazing Toledo vehicle has earned its stripes in agriculture as well. Colorado-based artist collective M12 is working with UT students and faculty to create an exhibit reflecting this remarkable history of Toledo’s Jeep. <\/p>\n

\u201cUniversal Future\u201d will utilize a Willys-Overland Civilian Jeep as a vehicle for reassurance about living with post-industrial and post-agricultural realities, and as a battle cry for positive social action. <\/p>\n
