Kean Adjunct Exhibition 2009

This afternoon we had the opening reception for the new Kean Fine Arts Adjunct Faculty Exhibition. Most of the 30 participants came in for the event, even though most of us were not actually teaching today. Many of the department's full time faculty also attended the reception, along with some students and other assorted visitors. My piece, shown being viewed above, received many compliments, and I was asked to explain it by more than a few in attendance. Below are more photos of the exhibition, showing the variety of work that was chosen by the participating artists.

The adjuncts tend to only come in on days and times when they have classes (the rest of the time there's a good chance we're off trying to earn some money somewhere else), so these occasional shows are an opportunity to meet some of our colleagues for the first time, or to see some whose paths we haven't crossed for a while. And the art is pretty cool, too. The show remains up for another 5 weeks, so people on campus will have plenty of time to see it for themselves.
