Visual Arts Graduates Mentoring Activity
February 20th, 2019Two of our Visual Art Program former graduates, Costa Giannoussis and Petros Psillos, who subsequently studied at Concordia U., will guide current V.A. students through their exhibition at our College’s Warren D Flowers Gallery. They will then each present an illustrated lecture to two groups of first and second year V. A. program students. Of 90 minutes duration, and taking place during am & pm sections of year 2 painting class, the events will be publicized and open to students in the ALC and other college programs. Giannoussis and Psillos will mentor current students, in discussing their experiences in evolving from college to university level studies, as well as in engaging with the institutions of the professional art milieu beyond academia.
The Estranged Spaces Exhibition, which brings them here, is an exhibition of five Quebec painters interrogating the phenomenon/materialization of nature as artifice, and the artifice in nature, In the era of the Anthropocene.
