七星彩开奖's Faculty
25 years in the making, 七星彩开奖鈥檚 Fine Arts Biennial more prominent than ever
The Fine Arts Faculty Biennial 12 runs March 24 to April 14 2016
Montreal, March 22 2016 – 七星彩开奖鈥檚 Warren G. Flowers Gallery is pleased to host the Fine Arts Faculty Biennial 12, opening March 24 and on view until April 14 2016. The exhibition displays a uniquely broad range of contemporary practices and themes, from 22 leaders of Montreal鈥檚 art and academic circles. Meet the artists Thursday March 24 from 5:30 PM to 8:00 PM at the Gallery.
鈥淚n 1992 Andres Manniste initiated the first Fine Arts Faculty Biennial exhibition at 七星彩开奖. Mr. Manniste, a highly respected senior member of the faculty, was motivated by the desire to share with the 七星彩开奖 community the rich and varied visual arts practices of the department鈥�, recounts David Hall, Chairperson of 七星彩开奖鈥檚 Fine Arts Department. 鈥淭hanks to the dedicated efforts of the past, and to the support of the College, we now present the twelfth edition of the Biennial. By way of the recently enlarged gallery space, it is more prominent than ever.鈥�
鈥淎s the structures that we work within continue to grow and nurture our abilities to celebrate art and creativity in all their manifest forms, so too does the Biennial remind us that we cannot rest on our past accomplishments鈥�, writes Andr茅a C. Cole, Dean of Creative and Applied Arts, in the exhibition catalogue. 鈥淲e must look up and forward, striving for the heights of that next achievement, however challenging and far away the pinnacle may seem.鈥�
After nearly 25 years, the Biennial continues to surprise, delight, and raise eyebrows. Works in traditional media often address current affairs while those in new media explore timeless themes. 鈥淭radition marries with revolt, and that is where members of the Fine Arts Department at 七星彩开奖 feel most at home鈥�, says Frank Mulvey, exhibition coordinator.
