Endicott Faculty and Students Exhibit at Rocky Neck Cultural Center in Gloucester

Endicott College is pleased to announce the Student and Faculty art exhibition Synthesis III which will be held at the Rocky Neck Cultural Center, 6 Wonson Street, Gloucester from Thursday, October 22 – Sunday, November 15, 2015.  Gallery hours are Thursday – Sunday, 12 noon to 4:00 pm. A gallery reception will be held on Sunday, October 25 from 2 – 4 p.m., free and open to the public.  Please contact Suzanne Gilbert Lee for information regarding Rock Neck Cultural Center at director@rockyneckartcolony.org. 

Synthesis III includes works by 9 faculty and 9 students from Endicott College’s School of Visual and Performing Arts.  Each of the nine faculty members were asked to invite a student from their major to participate in this exhibition. Faculty exhibiting are:  Kathy Desmond,

Sandy Farrier, Steven Liss, Barbara Burgess Maier, Michael Miller, Carol Pelletier, Cynthia Roberts, Mark Towner, and Larry Volk.  Students exhibiting are: Lauren Gallagher, Jessica Gray, Emily Leis, Angelina Lupini, Emily Mulvey, Stephanie Alvarado Ross, Andrew Schwartz, Kaitlin Smith, and Cayla Walukevich. The many media included will be drawings, paintings, photography and installation.  According to Dean Mark Towner: “There is a long history of exhibiting art by students alongside their professors’ art. The process reveals interesting patterns of media, style, and subject, and the end result provides multiple actions and dynamic reactions, to form a more complex picture: A synthesis most worthy of examination and the titling of this exhibit.” 

Suzanne Gilbert Lee, Director at the Rocky Neck Art Colony states, “The art colony has enjoyed the benefit of working with student interns who devote a semester to gain "real world" experience by working with organizations and various art related businesses. This is an opportunity for them to experience the process of mounting exhibitions—from planning to execution. The recent summer intern, Angelina Lupini, will now join with other faculty and student artists to showcase the work produced at the School of Visual and Performing Arts at Endicott College, and bring her recent experience at Rocky Neck full circle.”

Please join us on Sunday, October 25 from 2 – 4 p.m. as we celebrate with a gallery reception.  Many of the students and faculty in the exhibition will be in attendance.  If you have any questions regarding the exhibition and Endicott College, please contact Kathleen Moore at 978-232-2655, orkmoore@endicott.edu.  For information on Rocky Neck Cultural Center, please contact Suzanne Gilbert Lee or director@rockyneckartcolony.org.
