6 feet apART: Senior Studio Art Majors Exhibition 2021, on view at the Hillstrom Museum of ArtMay 5, 2021All day

6 feet apART: Senior Studio Art Majors Exhibition 2021 will be on view at the Hillstrom Museum of Art, Gustavus Adolphus College, from the College’s Honors Day, May 1, through Commencement, May 13, 2021.

This exhibition is a culminating event in the curriculum of the graduating senior studio art majors and is a required component of their studies.  It demonstrates the diversity of styles and approaches taken by the student artists, some of whom intend to continue studying or working in art after graduation.  On display are works by Hannah Calkins, Bryanna Filip, Darby Rose Hurlbert, and Claire Strohmeyer.

Their works were created using a variety of different media, and faculty from the College’s Department of Art and Art History served as jurors for the exhibition, selecting the strongest works from a group of submissions by each student.  The exhibit was installed with the assistance of the student artists, and a number of the works on view are being offered for sale.

The exhibition is free and open to College students and employees.  Members of the general public (to whom the campus is currently closed, due to the pandemic), may request an invitation to see the exhibit by emailing hillstrom@gustavus.edu, a process that typically takes at least a day.  The Museum’s regular hours are weekdays, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., and weekends, 1 to 5 p.m.  For more information, visit the Museum’s website at gustavus.edu/hillstrom.
