This month:
Gallery talks at 5:30 and 6:30 with graduating Studio Art students Countess Payne and Roxanne Bates, whose works are currently on display at the Cornell Fine Arts Museum
Countess will give a brief background regarding the influences that have led to her current work, as well as a description of the process of creating the Melancholy Landscape series. In addition, she will talk about some of the concepts behind her aesthetic choices.
Roxanne will discuss the development and inspiration behind her figurative work about performance and identity. Specifically, she will discuss the influential role of feminist theory in relation to issues of perception and the male gaze.
The Cornell Fine Arts Museum, in collaboration with the Department of Art and Art History at Rollins College is proud to host Coalescence, an exhibition debuting the work of ten senior studio art majors from the Class of 2013.
Coalescence is the culmination of the students’ artistic efforts and accomplishments over the past four years. The exhibition features works by Airam Dato-on, Kelly Brown, Elizabeth Countess Payne, Julia Lanfersieck, Julia McInnis, Roxanne Bates, Nikki Crewe, Andrew Berger, Alexis Csenger, and Meghan Pearis. A variety of mediums are used including painting, drawing, sculpture, photography, mixed media, and video art.
This group exhibition was juried by the Rollins College Professors Joshua Almond, Dana Hargrove, Dawn Roe, and Rachel Simmons, and by Jonathan F. Walz, Curator of the Cornell Fine Arts Museum and serves as the captstone experience for the graduating art majors. The jurors’ selections exemplify the students’ talents, technical prowess, and ingenuity.
