Two Days Left for SVA MFA ‘09 Show

by Todd ~ June 26th, 2009. Filed under: NYC, New York, students.

School of Visual Arts MFA Thesis Exhibition ends on Sunday. If you’re in Chelsea this weekend, you should pop in and see the latest crop of graduates’ work. A few highlights, as I can tell from looking at tiny jpegs over the Web:

  • Yiftach Belsky, Ikonostasis:voyeuristic transparencies over illuminated shadow boxes
  • Jessica Bruah, No Lake This Summer: example of taking a pretty esoteric subject, the Wisconsin Dells region, and blowing it out with close observation
  • Harlan Erskine, Imaginary Wars: childhood neighborhood battlegrounds, strangely absent of nostalgia
  • Barbara Kalina, Entered On 10/8/2007: Displaced In Place: personal curation of the Great Recession, levered on the photographer’s home foreclosure
  • Lissa Rivera, Incantations of a Doll Collector: weird combination of 21st century niche with a 19th century stage craft
  • Craig Stokle, Bearing Darkness: exploring the nighttime landscape with the help of car headlights.
