Curated by artist and 1708 Gallery Board Member Amie Oliver, New Faces 2012 features a glimpse of some of the fresh-faced talent enrolled in the BFA program at Virginia Commonwealth University. The media on view varies from photography to drawing, painting to sculpture, video and prints, but each artist’s vision and enthusiasm for concepts, materials and process promises to enlighten.
Join us for the opening reception of New Faces 2012 on Friday, September 7th from 5 to 9 p.m. at the Linden Row Inn.
