During the past 25 years, Dill has explored new areas of room environment art, often using entire gallery spaces for a single piece. His work often includes cement, sand and natural oxides to present colors as they exist in nature.

The hourlong documentary film “Andy Warhol” will screen Friday at 2 p.m. in Room 210 of the campus’s Fine Arts Building.

For additional information, call the college’s Visual Arts Office at (714) 895-8772.
