Students Present Artwork Exhibit
The student artists of ART 315 are pleased to extend an invitation to “Phantasmagoria,” an exhibition of artwork at Il Spazio.
These pieces were created to explore modernized mythologies, the fantastical in the every day and conceptual responses to the idea of fairy tales in contemporary life. What distinguishes a fairy tale from any other narrative? What are the hallmarks of our modern age? Can cynicism coexist with the suspension of disbelief? And how can these ideas translate into visual art?
An afternoon reception will take place from 3:30-5:30 p.m. Dec. 10 in Il Spazio’s back room to see how the artists of ART 315 respond to these questions.
The exhibit will be open during normal business hours at Il Spazio, 215 W. Washington St., until Jan. 14.
