This month, UA Department of Art and Art History faculty open solo and group exhibitions from New York to Ocala, Florida.

Professor Pete Schulte presents a solo exhibition of his recent work, Chamber Music, at McKenzie Fine Art in New York, with an opening reception on October 13. The exhibition runs through November 19, 2023.

In a new exhibition, Associate Professor Allison Grant and artist Kariann Fuqua write that they “create artwork in dialog with the earth, body, and cosmos in this uncertain time when all possible futures hold precarity.” Their collaborative work is part of a group exhibition at the Intermission Museum of Art’s “vol. iii: work in progress,” which runs October 10 through December 30, 2023.

Tom and Charlotte Wegryznowski, both full-time instructors of art history and art, respectively, are featuring their recent work in a two-person exhibition, Milestone, in Lowe Mill’s First Floor Main Gallery in Huntsville. There will be a closing reception on November 18, 2023.
