MICA Grad Show II: Post Bacc Fine Art

MICA’s Grad Show II by A.F. Oehmke

Grad Show II is currently on view at MICA and features work by students in the Post Baccalaureate Fine Arts and Graphic Design programs, and the Master of Fine Arts in Illustration Practice and Graphic Design Programs. Each of these programs has a different exhibition, in one of 3 locations, that come together to constitute Grad Show II. The Master of Fine Arts in Graphic Design program occupies the Meyerhoff and Decker galleries in the Fox Building.

Some works are political, addressing black masculinity or wealth inequity within the city, and others seem to marvel at design. Most of the projects, however, have an interactive element to them.

Here, before us at the school, are stripped-down, geometricized versions of four individual caterpillars, poised at different moments in their movements—stretching upward toward the sky, looking ahead, or reaching toward the ground, as if scouting for fallen leaves on the brick foundation...

Arting Gallery Hosts a Reception Thursday, May 2 for the Whimsical Exhibition

At Arting Gallery, David Barnett instills seriousness with a profound dose of wackiness. Or another way of describing A Carnival of Characters is that this intense, inventive show explores the childlike in the adult, and the other way around.
