Senior Art Exhibition to be Displayed at Holy Cross’ Cantor Art Gallery

WORCESTER, Mass. – The Iris and B. Gerald Cantor Art Gallery at the College of the Holy Cross will present PRECIPICE: Works from the Senior Concentration Seminar, from April 27 to May 27. An opening reception for artists will be held on April 27 from 5 to 6:30 p.m. at the Cantor Art Gallery.

Each spring semester the Cantor Art Gallery mounts an exhibition of work by graduating seniors enrolled in the Senior Concentration Seminar offered by the visual arts department/studio art Faculty. The two-semester course is designed to provide students the unique opportunity to work for extended periods of time, producing artwork that reflects their own vision and technical abilities. Instructor for the 2005-2006 Concentration Seminar is Cristi Rinklin, assistant professor of visual arts.

PRECIPICE includes works by graduating seniors: Jenna Cook, Matthew Dugan, Karyn Folino, Bethany Miczek, Leslie Mignin, Jason Schuster and Katherine Wood. Senior Concentration Seminar provides each student with a private studio space, opportunities to travel to exhibitions in the New England region, to meet with professional curators and artists and to have their work regularly reviewed by Holy Cross faculty and guest artists. The Senior Concentration Seminar culminates with the planning and execution of a group exhibition mounted in the Cantor Art Gallery under the guidance of the gallery staff and the visual arts faculty.
