New Exhibition of Public Art at Mizzou!
Welcome to "Public Art at Mizzou," an exhibition celebrating the vibrant creativity and talent within the University of Missouri community. From seasoned faculty to emerging student artists, this showcase highlights the diverse perspectives and artistic expressions.
Featured prominently in this exhibition is an exquisite etching titled "Snow" by esteemed faculty member Frank Stack. Known for his mastery of the medium, Stack captures a snowy landscape's delicate beauty and quiet serenity, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in its tranquil atmosphere.
In addition to faculty contributions, we are delighted to showcase the work of two exceptional student artists. Jacob Richey's piece, "The World Will Remember," offers a thought-provoking commentary on the enduring impact of human actions. Through a striking visual narrative, Richey challenges viewers to reflect on their role in shaping the future of our world.
Meanwhile, Jacob David presents "But It Was Only Me," a poignant exploration of personal identity and introspection. Through emotive imagery and intricate detail, David invites viewers into a contemplative space where the complexities of self-discovery unfold.
This exhibition also serves as a testament to the ongoing creativity within the MU community, as the MU Student Unions continue to call for the submission of artwork for monthly updates. It is through these opportunities for artistic expression that we continue to foster a culture of creativity and innovation on campus.
