2013 WVWC Faculty Biennale

The Sleeth Gallery will be kicking off its Spring 2013 exhibition schedule with the inaugural WVWC Art Faculty Biennale, running from January 15 – 31, 2013. The gallery is open Monday – Friday by appointment and admission is free.

The Biennale is a bi-yearly event featuring recent and ongoing works by the 5 artists who teach in the WVWC Art Department. The exhibition will include a variety of media and styles, ranging from more traditional painting and drawing to photographic, digital and multimedia works.

This exhibition is an opportunity for students to see and engage with art made by their professors and instructors, and for the community-at-large to view the range of visual and multimedia arts produced and taught by WVWC faculty. The WVWC Art Department is a steadily growing program, offering concentrations in painting and drawing, photography, graphic design and intermedia.

An opening reception will be held on January 17 at 4:30pm in the Sleeth Gallery.  I will be performing a new work, "Monotonize," during the reception - come check it out!

Sleeth Gallery
The Sleeth Gallery is located on the first floor of McCuskey Hall at West Virginia Wesleyan College, at the intersection of East Main Street and College Avenue in Buckhannon, WV.
Admission is free.

Mueller — an intermedia artist — focuses on humans' resistance to change and a struggle for control. How these efforts display themselves is the subject of the works collected in this exhibition, which includes large-scale paintings and video works. Recurrent visual themes include corporate management structures, cult dynamics, and Sisyphean tasks. Although these works share many specific, personal associations and a dry sense of humor, the audience is invited to develop personal narratives and explanations for each piece.
