HIESTAND HAPPENINGS NORTH GALLERY | FALL 2020 AUG 20–OCT 8 JIM ARENDT | PIERCED & MENDED Jim Arendt is an artist whose work explores the shifting paradigms of labor and place through narrative figure painting, drawing, prints, fabric and sculpture. Influenced by the radical reshaping of the rural and industrial landscapes he grew up in, he investigates how individual lives are affected by transitions in economic structures. “Persistence in difficult times is the art I’m most interested in. I continue to be inspired by the ways in which people make do for themselves. Whether it was a trip to the scrapyard or the back of the pantry, there was usually a way to work around material deficits. “ [Jimarendt.com]

NOV 4–18 | BFA CAPSTONE EXHIBITION Due to the COVID-19 closures, our Spring 2020 BFA Capstone Exhibition was canceled.

OCT 19–30 | MFA EXHIBITIONS AUSTIN CATHEY, ASHLEY CARROLL AND CHAD EGGAR Due to the COVID-19 closures, we were unable to celebrate the wonderful artworks of our Spring 2020 MFA candidates, Austin Cathey, Ashley Carroll, and Chad Eggar. Over the past two – three years, these artists have explored, persevered and produced artworks that inspire and question culture, emotion and attitudes. With this exhibition, we welcome their artworks (and hopefully the artists) back to the Department of Art and Hiestand Galleries, and applaud their accomplishments.
