Opening Reception October 9, 5 - 7 p.m.

Please join us on October 9, from 5 - 7 p.m., for the opening of Residual Utopia; the 2015 Maine College of Art Alumni Biennial at the College’s Institute of Contemporary Art. This year our jury, comprised of alumna Jenny McGee Dougherty '05, Dan Mills, Director of the Bates Museum of Art, and Lissa Hunter, Chair of the Board of Trustees at Haystack Mountain School of Crafts, has selected four artists that represent the breadth of the college’s academic programs, with representatives from our Bachelor’s Program, as well as our Master’s in Fine Art and Art Education programs.

The work that these artists produce illustrates a range of interests, practices, and levels of audience participation. In their individuated practices these artists have identified certain utopic ideologies as having been built on the ashes of that which came before. Ellen Babcock BFA '84, Cole Caswell MFA'08, Kevin Goodrich Art Ed '10, and Carlos Pileggi MFA '13 are working in fields of painting, photography, social sculpture, social practice, and printmaking.
