Student juried exhibition runs through May 7

Talk about it

The annual Juried Student Art Exhibition is on display at UW-River Falls in Gallery 101 of the Kleinpell Fine Arts building through May 7.

Guest juror is Tamara Brantmeier, a UW-RF alumna and an assistant professor of painting and drawing at UW-Stout.

Brantmeier graduated from UW-RF in 1992 with a B.F.A. in painting. In mid April she selected the works to be included in the show and then gave a presentation on her choices as well as selected student works to received awards.

“It was overwhelming at first, when I saw the amount of work submitted,” she said. “That immediately impressed me: The fact that so many students submitted so many pieces of work, and (that) I had to walk around the space a few times and simply absorb everything that was there.”

Gallery hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and 7-9 p.m. Mondays through Fridays as well as 2-4 p.m. Sundays.

For more information call the UW-RF art department at 425-3266.
