An exhibition featuring artwork by graduates of the Masters of Fine Arts program will be on display at the Lamar Dodd School of Art building until April 17.
The exhibition provides a showcase for new and noteworthy talent in contemporary art. The visual artists of the MFA program employ a wide range of subject matter in their multi- disciplinary practices. Each artist has spent years studying the representation and analysis of human experiences through creative research in visual art.
“The MFA exhibition is the highlight of the academic year,” said Georgia Strange, director of the art school. “Historically, the MFA exhibition commands the largest community turnout of all of our exhibitions. The students who will be graduating have been working toward this exhibition for three years. They will remember the MFA show all their lives.”
The exhibiting students are Wes Airgood, Jon Barwick, Maury Gortemiller, Joshua Dudley Greer, Jennifer Hartley, Nick Helton, Stacy Isenbarger, Soon Baek Kim, Erin McIntosh, Samantha Mosby, Laura Noel, Jon Roy and Tiffany Whitfield.
The Lamar Dodd School of Art is located at 270 River Road, next to the Georgia Museum of Art and the School of Music on East Campus. Gallery hours are 9 a.m.-5 p.m. weekdays. Parking is available across from the building in lots E07 and E11.
