Description
This catalogue is published in conjunction with the exhibition Intimately Unfamiliar: New Work by SUNY New Paltz Art Faculty, curated by Michael Asbill, on display at the Dorsky from January 25 through April 9, 2017. The participating artists teach courses in printmaking, photography, painting, drawing, sculpture, graphic design, ceramics, metals, and art education, as well as basic foundation courses. They are also professional artists and designers who exhibit their work in major museums and galleries throughout the world. Born in Europe, South America, the Middle East, and across the United States, these professionals collectively bring a wealth of experience and perspectives to art and art education. The fully illustrated catalogue was designed by Dimitry S. Tetin and features texts by curator Michael Asbill, Sara J. Pasti, and Anne Galperin.
