Between Desks and Studio: Outside & Beyond Work

Artist Reception May 16th 5PM-7PM

Please join us for a reception to mingle with the artists and enjoy complimentary refreshments in the NCRC Building 18 Lobby to celebrate Carlo Vitale - "The First Thing That I Saw" & Staff Artists "Between Desks and Studio: Outside & Beyond Work" Exhibitions. Evening Parking Free!

This exhibition presents a captivating collection of works by the exceptionally talented artists who are also on the staff at the University of Michigan Stamps School of Art and Design. These individuals play vital roles in nurturing the next generation of artists while also dedicating themselves to their personal artistic practices.

As they balance their responsibilities within the academic environment, they skillfully alternate between their desks and studios, pouring their passion and creativity into their own research. The resulting works on display reflect not only their unique perspectives and experiences but also the vibrant spirit of innovation that permeates the school.

By showcasing their diverse talents and imaginative visions, this exhibition invites viewers to appreciate the profound connection between teaching, learning, and artistic expression, revealing how the dual roles can enrich the artistic landscape for both the artists and the students at Stamps.
