"2000 Core Annual Core Exhibition"
2000-03-17 until 2000-04-23
Museum of Fine Art Houston, Glassell School of Art
Houston, TX,
USA United States of America
This is the 18th annual exhibition of works
produced by the skilled young artists who
have fellowships at the Glassell School of Art,
the teaching arm of the MFAH. The Core
Residents program offers emerging artists a
nine-month residency at the school, where
they are given studio space and a monthly
stipend in order to explore art freely. The
exhibition displays the work that the resident
artists have produced during their tenure at
the Glassell School of Art. Joseph Havel,
director of the Glassell School of Art, curates
the Annual Core Exhibition.
The Annual Core Exhibition features works by the
talented young artists in the Core Program at the
Glassell School of Art. This important event
showcases art in a variety of media, including
installation art, paintings, photographs, and
sculpture. The Core artists, selected from an
international pool of recent university and art school
graduates, spend nine intensive months focusing on
their artistic practice in studios at the Glassell
School. There are also two Core critical studies
residents, who have contributed essays to the
exhibition catalogue. The program emphasizes an
intensive studio experience and self-motivated
investigation of visual arts, rather than formal class
instruction. In addition, a series of seminars, lectures,
and critiques by important contemporary artists and
critics complements the fellowship program.
