14th Faculty Biennial opened Jan. 23

Our Fine Arts Department is presenting the 14th Faculty Biennial exhibition until Feb. 19 in the Warren G. Flowers Art Gallery near the Upper Atrium.

“This is an opportunity for the teachers to highlight a diverse collection of artworks, which represent but a fragment of our ongoing studio/research practice as visual artists, theorists, curators, critics and historians,” wrote Juan L. Gomez-Perales, Chair of Fine Arts, in the exhibit catalogue.

Teachers encourage their students to explore new ideas beyond their comfort zones and to constantly re-evaluate what they think they know, Juan said. “We require our students to present their artworks and to engage in a critical discussion. With this exhibit, we are reversing those roles.”

The exhibit features the work of 19 leaders in Montreal’s art and academic communities.
