Alumni Judge Student Artwork for Juried '10

The 10th Juried Fine Arts Student Exhibition opened April 9, with 40 students displaying their work. The exhibited works were selected out of 120 submissions.

This year, two alumni were invited to be the jurors. Amanda McGowan (’07 sociology) and Ashley Capachione (’07 fine arts) brought a fresh perspective to the process, according to Jessica Pappathan, assistant curator of the Chapel Art Center.

“They both worked in the center as students, and both now work in the art field. Ashley is finding her voice as an artist and Amanda works at a gallery that sells art, so they have different motives in the field. But they worked together really well and did a great job.”

McGowan works at McGowan (no relation) Fine Art in Concord, and Capachione works at the Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston.

The exhibit includes paintings, prints, drawings, photographs, and mixed media. The closing date is Saturday, May 1.

    I thought all of the works displayed were phenomenal! Fr.Iain and his team did a remarkable job of presenting each work in its finest light. Kudos to all who brought this lovely event to fruition! I had a wonderful time visiting my old school, my old classmate (well, Fr. Iain isn't really that old) as well as beaming with pride over my daughter's juried piece "Self-esteem" (Laura Lysaght).
