Sunday, October 21, 2007 through November 29, 2007, Hershberger Art Gallery Art Gallery Exhibit: Carol Ann Carter, Eric Yake Kenagy Visiting Artist
Carter’s creative work which began in intaglio printmaking, advanced to mixed media painting and fiber construction in 1984. She is currently working in multimedia installation - performance, mixed media and digital imaging and video. Carter is also interested in collaboration across cultures and disciplines in the arts. Of her work she states: The objects and spaces I utilize, suggest the creative field in which I play my work. It is a field of art and design where I practice movement and exchange of elements across boundaries. I am motivated by the dialogues among materials, intelligence or disciplines-by a kind of character conversion where one thing influences or develops by virtue of occupying space with another: red and green pigment meant for a painting, find their way to a chair...or when foot pain assists, over time, in the development of a shoe form. The field for these considerations--for this activity-- is wide open." Carter was born in Indianapolis, Indiana. She received her Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree from the Herron School of Art of Indiana University, and her Master of Fine Arts from the University of Notre Dame.
The reception for this exhibit will be held on Sunday, Oct. 28 from 8 to 9 p.m.,
following her Eric Yake Kenagy Visiting Artist lecture at 7 p.m. in Rieth Recital
Hall, Goshen College Music Center. The exhibit, reception and lecture are free
and open to the public. The exhibit will run through Nov. 29.

Paintings, drawings and photographs by local artists, children and youth who participated in "Nuestras Artes: Semana Cultural 07," a celebration of the arts in Michiana's Latino communities. Coordinated by NIV (Nueva Identidad de Vida/New Identity of Life). Sponsored by the Multicultural Affairs Office and Harold and Wilma Good Library.
During the 2006-07 school year, Goshen College Professor of Art Merrill Krabill
spent his sabbatical working with mixed media pieces, particularly ceramics and
photography, that explore boundaries. He writes in his artist statement: "This
latest body of work shows itself in images that are light (in value and weight)
combined with sculptural forms that are solid and heavy. I think of the pieces as
being at the boundary between two places. They often have elements that seem
gate or window-like—passageways."

Jayne Holsinger's oil-on-panel paintings movingly capture the spirit and humanity of her subjects. Her current series delves into Ms. Holsinger's Anabaptist background and heritage to explore the simple lives of a Mennonite family and community. The works are photo-based, and rely on carefully rendered serial images from single sittings.
