the best in contemporary paintings on Sept. 9 - Oct.1 at the Hattiesburg campus.
This year, 732 total entries were submitted by artists from across the country. From these, 52 paintings were selected for the exhibition, by juror and guest artist, .
βIn making selections, I looked for work that was both technically strong and conceptually challenging. I also looked for work to represent a variety of styles, techniques, and visions, including those that challenge the boundaries of the painting discipline or others that excel within the confines of tradition,β said Palmisano. βThe resulting exhibition brings together a chorus of rich and varied artistic voices, representative of todayβs painting practice.β
