This year’s exhibition was juried by Rebecca Ness, a Brooklyn-based painter recognized for her distinct compositions and introspective portraits. Ness received her MFA in painting and printmaking from the Yale School of Art and her BFA in painting from Boston University and has since worked as a full-time artist in Brooklyn. She has exhibited nationally and internationally in solo and group exhibitions.
“Showcasing a dynamic selection of contemporary works from across the country, the exhibition explores the many ways our bodies interact with our environments – often with a twist of humor and a reflection on labor and our relationship with technology,” said Gallery Director Courtney Chapman. A closing awards reception will take place from 6-8 p.m. Thursday, April 10, with awards announced at 6:30 p.m. The reception will be held in the Carroll Gallery, located on the first floor of the Visual Arts Center at 927 Third Ave. in Huntington. Light refreshments will be served.
Marshall galleries are open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday, and admission is free and open to all. For more information, visit Marshall.edu/art-galleries or contact Marshall Galleries at galleries@marshall.edu.
