Points of Departure

-

The “Hartford Art School’s International Limited Residency MFA in Photography program” is proud to present this inaugural exhibition of student work in conjunction with Künstlerhaus Bethanien in Berlin.

“Points of Departure” is divided into two parts, a temporary installation of ongoing personal projects (on view from April 29 until May 7, 2011), and a permanent installation (on view from May 12, 2011- opening from 7 p.m.). The permanent installation presents work the students created in response to a short story. They were given two short stories to choose from, “Airplane” by Haruki Murakami, and “A Country Road Song” by Andre Dubus. Their task was to create a body of work, with the story acting as a catalyst to trigger their imagination. The resulting exhibition showcases their responses.

“Points of Departure” contains works by 18 photographers currently enrolled in Hartford Art School’s new International Limited Residency Master of Fine Art in Photography program at the University of Hartford, they are:

Andrew Bruah, Jennifer Boomer, Georg Parthen, Dennis Preparato, J. Carrier, Tim Carpenter, Nelson Chan, Tricia Hoffman, Charlie Simokaitis, Susan Hayre Thelwell, Carl Wooley, Jennifer Trail, Leo Goddard, Robert Seto, Doug Lowell, JB Fitts, Bryan Schutmatt and Dorothee Deiss.
