Please join us for Second Saturday from 6 pm- 9 pm for the opening of “UNO Painting: 1971-2015,” a three-person exhibit of works by Professors Emeritus Doyle Gertjejansen, Richard Johnson, and Jim Richard. Whilst maintaining impressive exhibition records with local and national institutions during their academic careers, these three professors worked to develop and promote the professional lives of thousands of undergraduate students and roughly 150 alumni of the Master of Fine Arts graduate program in the Department of Fine Arts at the University of New Orleans. Now, after the retirement of all three professors of painting from the program, this exhibit focuses on their work in tribute to their multi-faceted service to the department and the University.
The gallery, located at 2429 St. Claude Ave., will hold an opening reception on Saturday, October 10, from 6-9 p.m. Exhibit dates are October 10 to November 8, 2015. Regular gallery hours are Sat-Sun, from 12-5 p.m. Please direct any inquiries to Kathy Rodriguez at klrodri2@uno.edu, or call the gallery during open hours at504.948.6939.
