About the Exhibit
The Department of Fine Arts and the
Chung-Cheng Gallery are proud to present the exhibition Art
in the Marketplace: Alumni from St. John’s University’s Department
of Fine Arts. This exhibition is a celebration of the
creative output of a select group of St. John’s alumni who have
made significant contributions to the field of professional design
in fashion, corporate identity, package design, the web and print
media.
From corporate identity to fashion, from
package design to the Web, and from Gourmet Magazine to
Sports Illustrated, alumni from the Department of Fine
Arts have made significant contributions to the field of
professional design. We truly see our alumni as contributing
members of this department and could think of no better way to show
this than to bring their creative work back to campus and through
this exhibition make it part of the current dialogue about art and
design at St. John’s.
Our hope is that this show will give our
current students a sense of the broad applications for a fine arts
degree within the world of professional design and that the
achievements of our alumni will help students navigate the dynamic
and ever expanding connections among art, commerce, and
communication.
