Studio Art
This exhibition by students in Hedya Kelin’s ART318 class is a culmination of in-depth studio practice.  Addressing technical and conceptual challenges, students generated a wide array of imagery, both observed from life and from their own imagination.  The silkscreen process is refined through composition, drawing, and even computer manipulation.  Free.

Ongoing through December 5.  Sponsored by the Program in Studio Art.

Public lecture 'good work' given by Kenneth Tam

Sponsored by:
Studio Art
Kenneth Tam’s work of the past several years has been consistently fueled by encounters with strangers, especially those facilitated by online message boards and forums such as Craigslist and Reddit. Stemming from an interest in how people navigate physical interaction and intimacy in shared spaces, Tam’s process often involves the solicitation of individuals whose participation in a given project is at times collaborative yet always serves to undermine the social conventions that are intricately linked to daily life.

Cameron Visiting Artist Mark Dion: Misadventures of a 21st-Century Naturalist

Sponsored by:
Museum of Art, Studio Art, and History of Arts and Architecture
Known best for his elaborate installations and fantastical curiosity cabinets, which often merge surprisingly disparate objects classified and arranged as so many incarnations of rare species, Mark Dion’s art questions distinctions between “objective” (“rational”) methods and “subjective” (“irrational”) influences. He returns to campus on the occasion of the Museum exhibition of prints created by the Cameron Family Arts Enrichment Fund and students in Hedya Klein’s Silkscreen and Intaglio classes.
