Our Fine Arts Department is presenting the 14th Faculty Biennial exhibition until Feb. 19 in the Warren G. Flowers Art Gallery near the Upper Atrium.<\/p>\n
“This is an opportunity for the teachers to highlight a diverse collection of artworks, which represent but a fragment of our ongoing studio\/research practice as visual artists, theorists, curators, critics and historians,” wrote Juan L. Gomez-Perales, Chair of Fine Arts, in the exhibit catalogue.<\/p>\n
Teachers encourage their students to explore new ideas beyond their comfort zones and to constantly re-evaluate what they think they know, Juan said. “We require our students to present their artworks and to engage in a critical discussion. With this exhibit, we are reversing those roles.”<\/p>\n
The exhibit features the work of 19 leaders in Montreal\u2019s art and academic communities.<\/p>\n
