Full-time faculty from School of Art and Design share their individual artwork

A part of 食色视频鈥檚 School of Art and Design, the Bernard A. Zuckerman Museum of Art (ZMA) will present art from professors in a special Faculty Exhibition, opening January 23 and running through May 9 in the Mortin Gallery.

This exhibition spotlights the incredible talent and creativity of the artists who teach full-time in the School of Art and Design (SOAAD). As one of the largest public art schools, SOAAD exemplifies a breadth of expertise in artistic practice.

, director of SOAAD, said, 鈥淥ur faculty are the bearers and conveyers of this expertise with their demonstrably exceptional artistic skill and notable drive for innovation. We are thrilled to be able to share the latest discoveries and accomplishments in their individual artistic practices.鈥� 

, director of curatorial affairs at ZMA, stated, 鈥淔aculty members at the School of Art and Design not only teach, but they are also working, professional artists, from sculptors to jewelry-makers to photographers and illustrators. This is a unique opportunity to celebrate their work outside of the classroom in our museum space.鈥�

Each artist has also submitted an artist statement to help the viewer better understand the work. Professor 鈥檚 work is 鈥渋nspired from folklore, my own experiences, beliefs, or concerns, and is created with the expectation that people will find something in the work they relate to personally.鈥� His piece 鈥淭anker Teapot 2鈥� is featured in the exhibition. 

, professor of graphic design, brings her passion for recycling and upcycling to her work 鈥淓arth Matters, 2020.鈥� She 鈥渨anted to utilize the items, just holding space in my home, for a newfound purpose. This artwork is not a reformed figure nor a specific object, but by arranging them within the wooden frame and overflow the frame for a sculpture, I wanted to highlight humanity鈥檚 unnecessary need for overconsumption.鈥�

Other artists featured include Craig Brasco, Page Burch, Jeff Campana, Sandee Chamberlain, Donna Colebeck, Valerie Dibble, Jonathan Fisher, Matt Haffner, Debbie Hutchinson, Joe Karg, Chris Malone, Joe Remillard, Don Robson, and Robert Sherer.
