Description

FRUITION: Senior Studio Art Majors Exhibition 2019 will be on view at the Hillstrom Museum of Art, Gustavus Adolphus College, from the College’s Honors Day, May 4, through Commencement, June 1, 2019.  An opening reception will be held as part of Honors Day, May 4, from 4 to 6 p.m.

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 Nicholas Beck, Emily Dzieweczynski, Sarah Link, Gino Sahagun, Christopher Schneider, Prabhjot Singh, and Megan Weaver.

Their works were created using a variety of different media including oil, acrylic, and watercolor; charcoal, graphite, and ink; fabric and embroidery; bronze; and works of mixed media, including with video and sound.  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 and reception are free and open to the public.  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.
