In Progress: Stamps School of A&D Faculty Exhibition

January 11 — Feburary 8
Reception: February 5, 4:30 — 5:30pm
Slusser Gallery

From the idea of ​“paper architecture” from Renaissance Italy to the rejected proposals by Soviet architects in the 1950’s, the concept of exhibiting drawings, sketches, unrealizable proposals and preliminary studies has held a place in the imagination of artists and designers. Preliminary work such as sketches, writings, models, prototypes, videos, and photographs all hold a special, deeply personal quality that reveals the inner workings of the creative process. At times, these works-in-progress can be powerfully elegant in their unfettered raw state and surprisingly agile in thought. 

This exhibition calls on the faculty to submit such ​“in progress” works.
