Graduating studio art students of the Department of Art and Art History at Rollins College will be presenting their work in the Cornell Fine Arts Museum.   This 19-person group exhibition, which will be the inaugural student show in the new museum building, represents the largest group of graduating artists in the history of Rollins College.  Participating artists are Cole Borgeson, Kerry Cox, Audim Culver, Dani Dalgin, Blair Fawcett, Gigi Fouquet, Annie Hable, Amy Hayes, Nicole Hektner, Sally Johnston, Laura Link, Molly Lehnhardt, Danielle Lunger, Caitrin Merrill, Jasmine Parker, Kristina Pompa, Ashley Sakmar, Shannon Scott and Jessica Wheat.

The exhibition encompasses a wide array of individual designs and unique conceptual ideas.  Bodies of work include large-scale color photography, black and white photography, mixed media prints, and paintings based on self- portraiture, the human figure, and travel experiences.  Also included are graphic and digital pieces. The exhibition selections, made by Curator of Exhibitions, Luanne McKinnon, exemplify the students’ skills and creative innovation.   Many of the works are available for purchase.
