“2014 MFA Thesis” Exhibition
New York Academy of Art
This event has ended.
The exhibition, curated by Dean of Academic Affairs Peter Drake and Faculty Chair Wade Schuman , encompasses a wide range of ideas and methods from fifty artists - in - residence graduating from the rigorous MFA program this May . Featuring new painting s , sculp ture s and drawing s from our d istinct group of artists , the exhibition aims not only to represent the thrilling culmination of two years of exploration and intensive pra ctice but also signify what’s to come in the next phase of their promising careers . As n o two experiences from the Academy’s program are alike , neither are the artistic visions of th e artists . For their individual thesis project s , each artist will present work that represents on e to two years of critical thinking, experimentation and mastery. The resulting exhibition , showcasing the varying interpretations of the Academy’s education in practice , will feature conceptually aware, technically informed works by artists who have their fingers on the pulse of contemporary figurative art.
