This focused presentation of work by faculty artists provides viewers an opportunity to see the breadth of works produced in a broad range of mediums by BMCC’s professors. The annual faculty exhibition highlights the college’s continued commitment to its growing art department.
Reflecting the great variety of approaches to contemporary art-making, In Person provides insight into the processes and techniques in use by BMCC faculty, from modes of traditional painting and sculptural form, to installation work, experimental photography, and works employing new media.
The Art Foundations Program, conferring an AA in Art History and AS in Studio Art, prepares students for careers in the arts. With a broad range of courses in studio art, design, and art history, the Art Foundations program offers BMCC art majors the fundamental training required for successful transfer to four-year colleges. Art professors work with BMCC students to achieve entry to top art and design schools.
The exhibition will include work by the following faculty artists:
Aisha Tandiwe Bell, Simon Carr, Elisa Decker, Louis Esposito, Pat Genova, Xico Greenwald, Sarah Haviland, Jayne Holsinger, Siobhan McBride, Lisa Nicchi, Carol Pereira-Olson, Thaddeus Radell, Jessica Ramirez, AC Towery, and Terttu Uibopuu.
