GSU Studen Photos by Carol Thorner and John Spomar Showtime
It's Showtime! And what a great show it is. Whether they use a chisel, potter's wheel, press, camera, paintbrush, chalk, pencil or a computer, GSU art students strut their stuff in the annual student exhibit. So many great entries made judging difficult for guest juror and critic, Joe Cavalier, sculptor from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Award winners are: Teresa Toune (First prize undergraduate, painting); Steve Williams (Second prize undergraduate, photography); John Spomar (First prize graduate, photography); and Luise Renner (second prize graduate, painting). Honorable mentions include: Kim Lorenz (painting); Lorelei Jones (photography); Connie Kassal (painting); and Stephanie Ulcej (painting). The arts are indeed fine at GSU. The student art exhibit was on view in the Art Gallery in E lounge from March 1-15. Reception awards and juror's honorarium funded by Artforum, the student art organization sponsored by Student Activities.
