School of Art’s MFA students have presented their works in an annual exhibition since 1970 at the University of Arizona Museum of Art. This exhibition is the culmination of the MFA studio art degree. During the last year of their coursework, graduates work closely with faculty to develop a body of original art to present to the public. The result is new, cutting-edge art in a variety of mediums and styles.
This year the artwork was displayed in both UAMA and the School of Art’s Joseph Gross Gallery.
