|
After many years at the New Harmony Gallery of Contemporary Art, the annual Senior Seminar Exhibition will be held on the USI campus. Featuring the work of 39 seniors, the exhibition will be held for the first time in the new McCutchan Art Center/Pace Galleries and run from January 20 to March 18. The art center opened to the public in September. The seniors in this year’s exhibition are Whitney Arvin, Ryan Baxter, Kevin Berry, Daryl Booth, Clinton Bosler, Brittney Bowles, Josh Brewer, Susanna Brown, Ben Clarkson, John Cummings, Davina Curtis, Heather DeLonga, Jessica Dodd, Allison Dripps, Steven Edwards, Christian Ethridge, Bryan Greenwell, Rachel Hamende, Karla Hampton, Robert Hansen, Whitnee Johnson, Rebecka Jost, Courtney Kavanaugh, Rachel Keith, Michael Loegering, Elaina Lynch, Niccole MacDonald, Blake McDivitt, Daniel McVay, Ryan Morphew, Amanda Murray, John Raleigh, John Schartung, Rochelle Serra, Jeremy Sexon, Jason Southwell, Elizabeth Summey, Dawn Topper, and Lawrence Woodward. An opening reception for the artists will be held from 2 to 4 p.m. Sunday, January 25. Michael Aakhus, associate dean of the College of Liberal Arts, said, “It’s a wonderful opportunity to showcase the work of our senior students after they’ve completed much of their coursework at USI and are able to share that as a group show with the rest of the arts community, as well as the campus community. These students have been through the graphic design, 3D and 2D programs. They’ve had the opportunity to take advantage of all the coursework and it shows up in the sophistication of their work.” The McCutchan Art Center/Pace Galleries is open to the public and admission is free. Hours are 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. Call the art center at 812/228-5006 for more information. Wendy Knipe Bredhold News & Information Services 812/461-5259 or wkbredhold@usi.edu |
