Every spring SUNY Brockport celebrates its visual art students with an exhibition presenting works they have made within the past year. This year’s exhibition, Campus of Curiosity, on display from March 24 to April 14 at the Tower Fine Arts Center Gallery at 180 Holley Street, Brockport, presents the students’ work in the manner of a wunderkammer, or cabinet of curiosity, with many wide-ranging objects of intrigue on display. An opening reception will take place at 5 p.m. on March 29, with an awards ceremony at 6 p.m. The exhibit is free and open to the public. Gallery hours for this exhibition are every day from noon to 5 p.m.
Campus of Curiosity features a wide variety of media and subjects representing works made within the past year by SUNY Brockport students, including ceramics, drawing, graphic design, painting, photography, printmaking, and sculpture. Gallery director Tate Shaw says, “It is an absolute pleasure to acknowledge and encourage students developing their craft and conceptual abilities by recognizing their effort with this exhibition and its awards.” The exhibition is designed, prepared, and installed by students in the Gallery Management and Exhibition Design course in the Department of Art. Awards are selected by SUNY Brockport Art faculty, area alumni, and curators and programmers of regional nonprofit arts institutions working in a variety of media.
