MFA Show 1986

16 July–31 August 1986

Twenty works by the eight graduating Master of Fine Arts students at Midway Studios, University of Chicago, represent a range of formal and expressive styles. Ellen Campbell, Patricia Deegan, Helen Jones, Susanna Kiluk, Walter Myers, Dan Peterman, Kenneth Shaw, and Michael Strong display a broad range of styles from the realism of closely cropped photographs to the abstraction of multilayered line and color, yet many of the works are united by their unconventional combination of materials, and frequently incorporate “found” objects from every day life or juxtapose familiar images in unexpected ways.
