This month Janie Stevens, a professor at the University of Cincinnati, DAAP brought a photography class in to see Matt's work. It was very beneficial both to the class and to myself and the artist. The students found the opportunity to visit a gallery and learn first hand what goes into putting together a show very helpful. The opportunity to discuss his work with such a receptive group allowed Matt to strengthen the ideas and concerns behind his work, while introducing it to a whole new audience. I was glad to have established a contact with the University and hope to work with them in the future to educate students outside of the classroom.
To find out about future artist talks and gallery visits, email the gallery at gallery1305@hotmail.com.
