UW-RF Student Presents Senior Art Exhibit

NOV. 5, 2004--UW-River Falls' student Gregori Starrett exhibits a collection of work, "Art as Public Space," at Gallery 101 in the Klienpell Fine Arts Building, Nov. 8-14.

Majoring in fine arts, Starrett incorporates photography, clay, painting, mixed media installation and living sculpture to create a diverse mix of artwork to reflect art's role in everyday, public life.

Based on Starrett's semester abroad experience in Europe, current events and the Art in Public Places Program initiated by the National Endowment for the Arts, his work presents art as a public form of expression. Starrett also draws from artists he credits as visual and philosophical influences, such as Robert Irwin, Robert Frank, Doze Green and Barry McGee.

For more information, please call the art department 715/425-3266 or email gregori.d.starrett@uwrf.edu.
