There was a great article on Courant.com today by new arts beat reporter Susan Dunne about our Leslie Wayne exhibition, opening Tuesday. Go check it out, then come to the gallery on Tuesday to see the amazing work in person.

The Joseloff Gallery is proud to be hosting the 5th Annual Hartford Art School’s MFA in Illustration Graduate Exhibition next month.

Between July 11 and July 22, the work of fourteen 2011 thesis projects will be on display in the gallery.  The exhibition will be open to the public for extended hours: Monday through Friday, from 10am until 4pm, and Saturday and Sunday from 12pm to 4pm.

On the evening of Friday, July 22, the pubic is also welcome to attend a reception in the gallery from 5-7pm.  Those planning to attend the reception should RSVP to tinkelman@hartford.edu, or call 914-737-5961.

Featured artwork in the exhibition will include traditional, mixed, and digital media and offers art enthusiasts the opportunity to view a uniquely strong, collective body of work. Hartford Art School’s MFA students are established illustrators working professionally in their field of expertise and many are art professors from around the country. This particular student dynamic lends itself to a noteworthy, one-of-a-kind show.

Graduating artists include: Josh Brunet, Leslie Cober-Gentry, Michael Cooley, Tom Galmarini, Sally Govan, Chava Light, Peg Nocciolino, Kristian Olson, Ursula Roma, Jon Sideriadis, Daniel Swartz, Elizabeth Thompson, Jack Tom, and Eric Wieringa.

The schedule for next year has been announced, and it is going to be an exciting and gorgeous year at the Joseloff Gallery.  From colorful, sculptural oil paintings in the fall, to a group show of exquisite printmakers focused on book arts in the winter, you won’t want to miss a single show.  Visit our Exhibitions page for the full story, or click here to download your own schedule.

We are incredibly disappointed to report that due to the disrespectful and ongoing vandalism and thefts of the Mary Miss map pins on campus, all of the remaining pins have been uninstalled.  The temporary markers that were set out to replace the stolen map pins have also been vandalized and taken, which means that unfortunately there are no longer any physical markers of the Park River FLOW project on campus.  Visitors to the gallery are still welcome to take the fold-out maps (available at the front desk) and walk the campus to find the areas that the pins had previously marked, but unfortunately the sculptural pins created by Mary Miss will no longer be seen.

Our very own Mary Miss exhibition was just in ArtWeek, the arts and entertainment section of the Hartford Courant website, Courant.com.  Check out the article, written by Roger Catlin, by clicking here, or download a PDF by clicking here.
