Curator’s Statement

A unique and critically significant ingredient that characterizes this year’s exhibition is the multiplicity of its artistic directions. Free from thematic parameters, this exhibition has provided faculty with an opportunity to display work that represents their most personal and insightful inner visions. Showcased on the gallery walls is a diverse presentation of styles and technical approaches ranging from the traditional to the experimental which encompasses a wide spectrum of media and aesthetic philosophies.

This show not only highlights a creatively unique and productive faculty, but affords our students a wonderful opportunity to see, contemplate and engage faculty in discussions about their work as professional artists.

The faculty of the Department of Fine Arts welcomes the opportunity to share their work with the St. John’s University community, and I hope everyone enjoys the show!
