Winthrop University
in Rock Hill, SC, Offers Several Exhibitions
Winthrop University
in Rock Hill, SC, is offering several exhibitions including: Representing
Me on view in the Lewandowski Student Gallery through Sept.
24, 2009; the South Carolina Governors School Faculty Exhibition,
on view in Rutledge Gallery, from Sept 21- Oct 22, 2009; and Kirk
Fanelly: Recent Paintings and Works on Paper, on view in Patrick
Gallery, from Sept 21- Oct 22, 2009.
The South Carolina Governor's School for the Arts (SCGSAH) and
Humanities in Greenville, SC, provides a unique public high school
education opportunity to emerging young artists in South Carolina.
Winthrop has had a long standing connection to the SCGSAH through
the many talented students who further their artistic education
at Winthrop University. The nine-month residential high school
is modeled after a master-apprentice community with an arts faculty
who are all practicing artists, as well as educators in their
areas of expertise.
Participating in the exhibit are: Alice Ballard, Sharon Campbell, Katya Cohen, John Benjamin Gilliam, Axel Forrester, Joe Thompson, Carla Tucker and Paul Yanko. This exhibition showcases artwork by these talented visual arts faculty members from the SCGSAH.
A Charlotte, NC, native, Kirk Fanelly's work incorporates the people and surroundings of his everyday world. He creates images that lead the viewer around familiar corners to discover tableaux that may first appear unexpected or discordant, but at subsequent glances evoke shared emotions or experiences. Fanelly desires an image to continually pose questions to both the viewer and himself over time, but to never become so complicated it causes us to retreat in frustration.
