MURFREESBORO — The MTSU Department of Art's Student
Gallery Committee is inviting the public to a new exhibit at the Todd Art
Gallery, “Nous,” a salon-style display featuring a variety of student works
from across the creative spectrum.
“Nous,”
which is French for “we” or “us,” is open through Thursday, April 11.
"'Nous'
is a show that provides us the opportunity to show the diversity of the art
department," said sophomore studio arts major Amber Lelli, the exhibit
curator.
"It
includes student artists at all different skill-levels using different mediums
… (and) is intended to embody as much student work as possible while exploring
different gallery showings in our new (Todd Gallery) 210 space. This show gives
us a glimpse into our current art community… at Middle Tennessee State
University and how each student is growing on their own creative paths through
this program.”
The
exhibit features 90 examples of student artists' work in book arts, ceramics,
printmaking, painting and sculpture, as well as graphic design and the foundation
areas of drawing and two-and three-dimensional design. Photography, mixed
media, digital art and other emerging art forms are also included.
The work
spans the entire exhibit space, displaying art wall-to-wall and
floor-to-ceiling.
Todd Art
Gallery exhibitions and receptions are always free and open to the public. The gallery
is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and is closed on
state and university holidays.
