5th Annual MASTER PIECES Main Gallery, Drawing Room and Parallel Space Gallery Opening Friday, July 8, 6-9p.m. Exhibit continues: July 9 - August 5, 2011 Since its inception in mid-2004 Manifest has had at the core of its mission the goal to engage and bring together students pursuing a degree in the visual arts. Each year Manifest's exhibits and studio programs bring scores of students and professionals together, share their work with the public, and document it for posterity. Nearly 100 academic institutions across the U.S. and beyond have been represented in Manifest projects by student work in seven years of programming. Adding another layer of focus to our programming, initiated by the Rites of Passage exhibits for undergrads, Manifest offers a similar opportunity to graduate students for exhibiting at Manifest. This fifth installment of the Master Pieces project will continue to reveal the intensity and professionalism of students working towards their terminal academic degree in art. Often the most exceptional work comes out of these artists’ immersion in their culture of study and intellectual pursuit. Manifest’s goal, therefore, is to select works that in the truest sense of the word are contemporary masterpieces – works that set the standard of quality that the artist is expected to maintain throughout his or her professional career. The exhibit catalog for this show will serve as a visual documentation of these artists’ own benchmarks for years to come. This 5th annual Master Pieces was open to submissions by current graduate students, or those who received their graduate degree in 2010 or 2011. One hundred and twelve artists submitted 300 works for consideration. Of these, twenty five works by the following sixteen artists representing eleven colleges and universities were selected for exhibition and documentation in the full-color catalog. Five of these are from within 200 miles of Cincinnati.
