Second Annual MASTER PIECES Curated by Jason Franz Building upon the philosophy and success of the Rites of Passage exhibits for undergrads, Manifest offers a similar opportunity to graduate students for exhibiting at Manifest. Another annual offering, this second installment of the Master Pieces project will reveal the intensity and professionalism of students working towards their terminal academic degree in the field of art or design. Often the most exceptional work comes out of these artist-scholars� 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 (or better) 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 second annual Master Pieces project received over 300 entries by 136 artists in 25 states and three countries. The final selection includes 13 works by the following eight new masters, each representing a different academic program: Chris Bohach (Lexington, Kentucky) Andrew Dailey (Kettering, Ohio) Thea Augustina Eck (Ann Arbor, Michigan) Christina Empedocles (San Francisco, California) Metra Mitchell (St. Louis, Missouri) Svala Olafsdottir (Anthony, New Mexico) Gayle Shaw Clark (Statesboro, Georgia) Ming Zhou (Columbia, Missouri) |
