The CU Art Museum at the ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ opens the largest faculty exhibition to date on Friday, Jan. 21, at 10 a.m.

The exhibition will feature the work of 22 faculty artists from the department of art and art history and will be displayed through several galleries in the museum's state-of-the-art facilities in the CU-ºù«ÍÞÊÓƵ Visual Arts Complex.

Works will be presented in an array of media, including video and sound installation, painting, photography, ceramics, digital arts, printmaking, sculpture, and mixed-media/site-specific installation.

"It highlights the breadth and range of conceptual and aesthetic approaches practiced in our art and art history department."

The exhibition also marks the return of a valued tradition on campus. The last major faculty show was held in 2007.

Located in the cultural heart of the campus, the CU Art Museum is open Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Tuesdays until 7 p.m. and Saturdays from noon to 4 p.m. Parking is available in the nearby Euclid Avenue parking garage.
