Posted on March 5: The Art of McMaster Faculty at the Museum

The McMaster Museum of Art presents an exhibition of recent work by seven accomplished artists who are also faculty in McMaster University's School of the Arts. They are:

Don Carr

Judy Major-Girardin

Alan Flint

Robert Hamilton

Liss Platt

Graham Todd

Maria Whiteman

This is the first faculty exhibition since the creation of McMaster School of the Arts' multimedia program.

These artists address a variety of themes using a wide range of practices including painting, printmaking, mixed media sculpture, video and multimedia. According to Alison McQueen, assistant professor of art history at McMaster University, “The works in this exhibition attest to the on-going and powerful role of contemporary art works as vehicles for social change and creative communication.”

It has been said that great teachers never strive to explain their visions, they simply invite you to stand beside them and see for yourself. The newest exhibition at the McMaster Museum of Art is an opportunity to do just that.

Lunchtime talk: Wednesday, March 5, 12:30 p.m.

Opening reception: Thursday, March 6, 7-9 p.m.

Artist talk by Don Carr: Thursday, March 13 at 12:30 p.m.

The McMaster Museum of Art is located on the campus of McMaster University at the corner of Sterling Street and University Avenue. Admission to the Museum and this special presentation is pay-what-you-can with a suggested donation of $2. Students, seniors and members are free. Museum Hours: Tuesday – Friday 11-6; Thursday evening 7-9; Sunday 12-5. Phone: 905-525-9140 ext. 23081. Fax: 905-527-4548. E-mail: museum@mcmaster.ca or visit www.mcmaster.ca/museum
