Opening Reception: Friday, May 2, 6–8pm
Location: 808 Gallery (808 Commonwealth Avenue)
Exhibition and Gallery Events are Free and Open to the Public.
BFA Painting Exhibition
Each student in the BFA Painting Program studies perspective and spatial relationships through geometric forms. The program promotes painting in its varied manifestations as fundamental form of visual and artistic expression. The principal component of the program is studio activity. Painting majors explore elements of color, light, space, volume, tone, texture, and composition through still-life landscape, and invented motifs.
BFA Graphic Design Exhibition
The intensive BFA Graphic Design Program is traditionally based with a modern orientation. Students learn photography from the darkroom to critical evaluation of the print, study typography as an element of design, and learn to relate three-dimensional graphics to architectural and package design.
BFA Sculpture Exhibition
Students in the BFA Sculpture Program concentrate on developing the visual, perceptual, and conceptual skills necessary to work observationally in clay, plaster, wire, and wood. In the program, faculty focus their efforts on teaching students to create that illusion of life inside the form of their work.
808 Gallery is located at 808 Commonwealth Avenue on the 1st Floor. Gallery hours are Monday – Friday from 11am–5pm, and Saturday and Sunday from 1pm–5pm.For more information, visit bu.edu/cfa.
