Arts Year Wraps Up With Graduate Student Exhibition
“The Arts and Humanities Graduate Exhibition,” showcasing the work of 27 students from eight majors, is taking place in person after two years of being online. The exhibition is at the Jan Shrem and Maria Manetti Shrem Museum of Art.
All the students are from the UC Davis College of Letters and Science. Along with M.F.A. students from art studio and design, graduate students in music, art history, performance studies, math, creative writing and political science are part of the show.
Many of the students address pressing issues — environmental destruction, political divisions, racism, immigration, disability justice and more, while others engage with personal experiences, memory and aesthetic practices. Their projects take a wide range of forms, including sculpture, photography, ceramics, painting and experimental music.
A public opening will be held June 2 from 6 to 9 p.m. at the museum, with performances by several students and an awards ceremony.
The exhibition runs through June 19. Admission is free.
