EACH YEAR, the Mandeville Gallery presents six rotating exhibitions of contemporary art, science, and history. We are pleased to include among these a group exhibition of the work of our graduating visual art students. The Union College Senior Exhibition provides an opportunity for these students, their professors, their family, and their friends, to look back over four years of creative effort at Union College. This show provides a chance for these students to exhibit an overview of their accomplishments, and both they and their audience are able to view the work in the context of the group as a whole. We are delighted to share their achievements with the community. This exhibition not only represents the distillation of their efforts and learning at Union, but it also marks the emergence of a new self, as they complete the transformation from student to artist.
