Exhibit display talent of
A&M architecture faculty
Story by Kiffen Collins • Photos by Sallie Turner
uizzes, tests and homework — in the eyes of stu-
J dents, the life of professors does not seem to go
any further. However, the J. Wayne Stark Uni
versity Galleries presents the “Art Faculty Art” exhib
it, featuring work from 13 architecture professors,
which shatters the myth that faculty life begins and
ends at the classroom door.
Catherine Hastedt, curator of the galleries, said the
exhibit contains a variety of media.
“The gallery has art ranging from landscape paint
ings to surrealistic art forms, pencil drawings and oils
to manipulated and straight photography,” Hastedt said.
“Computer generated 2-D and 3-D software and digital
images featuring light and sound boxes are also on dis
play. Diaries containing personal and autobiographical
artwork are included as well. ”
An opening reception, sponsored by the College of Ar
chitecture and the Office of University Art Collections and
Exhibitions, was held March 25 for the public. The artists
were introduced, and the Big Apple Triio provided enter
tainment.
Beverly Wagner, administration secretary for the gal
leries, said the reception was well received.
“We had approximately 400 people attend the recep
tion opening night,” Wagner said. “The artists’ work was
highly anticipated and thoroughly enjoyed.”
Wagner said many students have visited the exhibit
since the opening.
“Student attendance is pleasing, and they are im
pressed with the artwork,” she said. “Several professors
have used the exhibit as part of the classroom agenda;
they have asked their students to view the artwork and
critique it.”
Thomas Kinowsky, a junior architecture major, said his
professor made an assignment out of the exhibit.
“A large portion of our grade was to visit the gallery
and see the various artwork on display,” he said. “It was
very interesting to actually see my professor’s work; it
gave me a better understanding of what this career en
tails.”
The Stark Galleries has hosted the “Art Faculty Art” ex
hibition every two years as a way of promoting visual arts
at A&M. Hastedt said this is a good way to get student par
ticipation in the arts because of the lack of art courses
available to students.
“A lot of people don’t realize the breadth of talent these
professors hold because there is no specific art gallery for
them,” she said.
Admission to the exhibit is free and open to the pub
lic. The gallery is located in the MSC and exhibition hours
are Tliesday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Sat
urday and Sunday from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m..
The “Art Faculty Art” exhibit will be on display through
May 16. For more information on this display or any up
coming exhibit, contact the J. Wayne Stark Galleries at
