Faculty in Cornell’s Department of Art are invited to exhibit work at the Johnson every few years, providing an opportunity for both the university community and the broader public to reflect on the relationship between education and practice. Cornell’s art faculty are deeply engaged in studio-based teaching and strive to develop students into confident and independent artists in their own right.
On view is work by Nidaa Aboulhosn, Michael Ashkin, Mara Baldwin, Roberto Bertoia, Leslie Brack, Abigail Raphael Collins, dean erdmann, Renate Ferro, Gail Fitzgerald, Julianne Hunter, Joanna Malinowska, Leeza Meksin, Elisabeth Meyer, Jolene Rickard, Kayla Romberger, Stan Taft, and Dan Torop.
This exhibition was organized by Andrea Inselmann, curator of modern and contemporary art, and Isabella Dobson, curatorial assistant, at the Johnson Museum.
