The School of Art and Design's 2009 Master of Fine Arts Exhibition in the Krannert Art Museum is the culmination of up to three years of concentrated research and practice and includes the work of Michael Collins, Matthew Crowther, Brandice Guerra, June He, Yong Seok Hong, Yunjin Kim, Steve Kleumpers, Michael Peyton, Joyce Thomas, Ryan Thompson, Skot Weidman, and Zhongren Zhang. For these artists and designers this exhibition functions as a tangible thesis, a necessary physical companion to the required written text that distinguishes the MFA degree. More significantly, this exhibition is the extension of an educational space as public platform upon which objects and images become positioned so as to propose arguments, ask questions and sustain dialogue. Through the crafting of these questions and mastery over materials, these artists and designers reveal an ongoing and rigorous commitment to their chosen fields of study. The School of Art and Design celebrates their achiev ement!
