Antelope Valley College invites students, staff, and the greater Antelope Valley community to experience an exhibition of paintings by internationally recognized abstract artist Jack Reilly, on display March 10 through April 16, at the Rich Sim Art Gallery in Cedar Hall.

Reilly, Professor Emeritus at California State University Channel Islands, is known for his striking circular shaped-canvas paintings, vibrant color fields and distinctive brushwork. A leading figure in the 1970s Abstract Illusionism movement, his work has been exhibited and collected worldwide.

Centered on the symbolism and geometry of the circle, Reilly's paintings explore light, color, space and the metaphysical connections that shape our understanding of the world. This exhibition offers a rare opportunity to engage with the work of a celebrated artist right here on campus.

This exhibit is free and open to the public. AVC invites you to visit, reflect and experience this compelling body of work.

When: 
March 10 – April 16, 2026
