COMBINE 2012 is an exhibition that demonstrates the scope of the faculty beyond its exhibiting artists. The project begins with submissions by undergraduate artists to a jury of their peers. The selected works are then brought to undergraduate art history students to write catalogue entries. These are translated and brought to an undergraduate design class, where the catalogue’s design and production becomes a major class project. One submission is then selected by jury to go into production.
Throughout this project, the scope of creative practices within our faculty is highlighted as it brings the participating undergraduate students into a professional realm. Join the celebration at the finissage, when the catalogue will be revealed.
