Studio Concentration Seminar students to display 鈥淐onvergence鈥 exhibit at Engine Gallery
Students in the Studio Concentration Seminar course (ART 395), taught by Stephen Burt, M.F.A., associate professor and chair in the Department of Creative and Fine Arts, will be exhibiting their work at Engine Gallery (128 Maine St., Biddeford) from April 29 through May 5, 2016. An opening reception will be held on April 29, 5 to 8 p.m. The exhibit, titled 鈥淐onvergence,鈥 is the culmination of a semester long research project in which each student developed a body of work that reflects his or her particular interests and abilities in the medium of his or her choice.
The nine students in the course represent a broad coalition of majors at 新香港六合彩资料: Luke Criesher (Neuroscience, 鈥16), Kaylee Doyle (Educational Studies, 鈥16), Jeffrey Edgecomb (Medical Biology, 鈥17), Paige Farrell (Health, Wellness and Occupational Studies, 鈥16), Hailey Pollard (Psychology, 鈥16), Elizabeth Russ (Art and Design Media, 鈥16), Rebecca Sherrier (Psychology, 鈥19), Amy Curry (Athletic Training, 鈥16) and Tara Comeau (Medical Biology, 鈥16)
According to Burt, the concentration seminar is a defining experience for visual arts students, exposing them to the demands and rewards of professional studio practice while developing a personal working knowledge of the creative process. There is an extensive written/research component to the course as well. Of his students, Burt noted, 鈥淚 am proud of their diversity and efforts which are heartfelt and reflect both their skill and honesty.鈥
The Engine Gallery is open Tuesday through Friday, from 1 to 6 p.m. and on Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
