Artists Reception: Continuty

Join us!

Myers School of Art celebrates thirteen Emeritus Faculty with an exhibition highlighting recent works.  These artists represent a combined 337 years of service to the University of Akron.  Together they nurtured a legion of talented and award winning students.  The list of awards for these artists and their respective students is unfathomable.  Many of these faculty were instrumental in expanding their respective departments within the school of art.

The focus of this exhibition aims to showcase works made after retirement.  Most artworks are from the previous few years and some made as recently as this fall.  Several have continued on a path of work that may be familiar to long time followers of their work, for others, they’ve begun new bodies of work outside the medium for which they were known.  Works on view span everything from ethereal landscapes to politically charged works and MORE!
