AIB Fine Arts Blog

Professor Geoffrey Koetsch has created an interdisciplinary installation in the Marran Gallery on the Lesley campus that will run from March 22 to April 21. The installation, entitled IN/BETWEEN: An international visual dialog, was conceived in collaboration with Jeremy Chu, a former AIB photography student.

Professor Koetsch will give a lecture on the project as part of the “Community of Scholars” symposium on Thursday, March 29 in room 4-040, University Hall, 3:45-4:45.

Congratulations to AIB faculty member Ann Hirsch! Ann and her collaborator, architect Robert Olson, have been chosen as three of the finalists competing for a public artwork dedicated to Edgar Allan Poe which will be installed at Poe Square here in Boston in the coming years.

For a limited time, members of the public can view the proposals and offer comments on each of the finalists' submissions at a blog set up by the Poe Foundation.

 

 

Your input is especially important and welcome! Ann and Rob would appreciate your feedback and support of the process and thank you for involvement!

Anna Poor

ArtSTRAND Announces:

Anna Poor Mid Career Exhibition:
Myths, Stories and the Life of Things

Opening Reception:
Friday, March 12, 2010 at 6pm, at the Provincetown Art Association and Museum.

A mid-career survey of artwork by Anna Poor is on view at the Provincetown Art Association Museum (PAAM) March 12 -May 2, 2010. The power of narrative generated by mythology, folklore, and religious visual culture.

Poor’s sculptures are often diminutive in scale and engage the viewer in critical contemporary issues of appropriation, ownership, and the destruction of cultural objects. Her anthropomorphic creatures, innocent bystanders in a violent world, combine contemporary sensibilities with age old, labor intensive sculptural techniques.
