Marxhausen Gallery features artwork of Grace Woodburn

2015 Mar 27

The best of Concordia University, Nebraska students' artwork, as judged by Concordia's full-time art faculty, will be on display at Marxhausen Gallery from March 29 through April 17.

Students with artwork selected for exhibition include:

Grace Woodburn, a freshman from York, Neb.

"The student art show provides an opportunity for the community to see what its art students are doing in their coursework and personal studio practice," said Director of the Marxhausen Gallery Jim Bockelman. "This system of students submitting works to a jury of academic professionals is found in nearly every art school in the Western world today."

Art majors are required to enter their work to be judged. If accepted, their artwork will be displayed in the gallery and will be eligible for monetary awards. Endowed scholarships are among the awards.

The Annual Student Art Exhibition is a spring ritual for the university's art community. First- and second-year art majors must submit five works of any type of art. Third- and fourth-year students must enter seven pieces. If desired, students are able to sell their art during and after the exhibition.

The Marxhausen Gallery is located in Jesse Hall and is open Monday-Friday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.
