The University of Georgia and Georgia State University are collaborating on HOMEWORK, a pop-up exhibition featuring artwork selected from each of the two premier MFA programs for the 2024 edition of Atlanta Art Week.
Curated by Athens-based artist Didi Dunphy, HOMEWORK is an exciting look at the mixed media explorations of this emerging art community readying to launch into the professional field of visual arts.
Second- and third-year graduate candidates in HOMEWORK, working in a range of media, including metals, fiber, photography, and papermaking, explore concepts such as climate concern, identity politics, beauty, and storytelling.
HOMEWORK exhibition dates: Oct 1, 2024 - Oct 6, 2024
