DENTON (UNT), Texas -- Three decades of work from David Blow, University of North Texas professor emeritus of communication design, will be the subject of an exhibit at UNT on the Square that opens Nov. 30 (Friday).

The exhibit will be on display through Feb. 9, 2013 (Saturday). The show will feature approximately 80 prints, serigraphs from Blow's World and Americana series, and digital prints from his Nature series.

The exhibition is free, and an opening reception will be from 5:30-7 p.m. Dec. 7 (Friday). 

Blow has exhibited his prints in numerous galleries including Gallery Z in Stuttgart, Germany; Gallery X in New Bedford, Mass.; the Houston Center for Photography; the Museum of Abilene; One 9zero6 Gallery in San Antonio; George Fox University in Newberg, Ore.; and Boston Printmakers.

"My works were inspired and embraced by technological changes that are taking place in our culture, my observations of American life, and common concerns in life  --love, money, success, and memories -- which we all may experience in different ways," said Blow.

Blow's prints have also been featured in American Photo andJuxtapoz magazines, The Next Generation book. Blow also published a collection of his prints,  Nature's Poetic Vision, in 2011.
