The Savannah College of Art and Design announces the third edition of deFINE ART, the university's annual fine arts showcase.
deFINE ART 2012 will honor conceptual artist Fred Wilson for his work and influence on contemporary art. Wilson will give public talks at SCAD locations in Savannah and Atlanta and will present an artistic intervention at the Walter O. Evans Collection of African American Art at the SCAD Museum of Art.
Exhibitions at SCAD Atlanta:
SCAD alumna Lisa M. Robinson (M.F.A., photography, 1999) will present a solo exhibition titled Oceana at SCAD Atlanta's Gallery See. A presentation of new photography, Oceana is a body of work that poetically depicts the transformative nature of water. Robinson juxtaposes storm surges and calm reflective moments as well as the formation of ice and flowing currents.
On view at SCAD Atlanta’s Trois Gallery will be Zander Blom’s Place and Space. This solo exhibition will feature a selection of recent paintings, drawings and photographs in which the artist explores different configurations of lines, shapes and forms.
