The University of Southern Indiana’s 50th annual Juried Student Art Show is on display beginning Monday, April 13. Because the McCutchan Art Center/ Pace Galleries on the USI campus is currently closed due to the COVID-19 outbreak, the exhibition is being displayed online and can be viewed at the McCutchan Art Center/Pace Galleries website.
Ninety students submitted 277 two-dimensional, three-dimensional, graphic design and photographic entries for the exhibition. The show’s juror this year, Jon Goebel ’00, chose 84 pieces by 55 artists to be included in show. Jon is a USI alum and is currently Associate Professor of Art at the University of Hawaii, Hilo. A statement about this selection process accompanies the exhibition and can also be viewed on the USI website listed above.
Awards for the exhibition will be posted to the website on Monday, April 20. Instead of an in-person ceremony, the USI Art and Design Department plans to create a video compilation of faculty announcing the award winners.
Artists selected for inclusion in the exhibition are Baylie Armstrong, Jordan Auker, Megan Baggett, Allie Boyd, Olivia Boze, Meleah Brock, Zachary Brown, Precious Burdette, Courtney Burke, Cole Collier, Emily Davis, Lisa Dayvolt, Austin Delano, Samuel DeVoy, Katherine Drake, Bridget Eckerle, Spence Farmer, Izzy Ferraro, Madison Genet, Emma Goodrich, Alexis Haag, Jonathan Hamilton, Sky Hartig, Jade Hatcher, Jody Henke, Ally Hinton, Cody Hostetler, Juanita Johnson, Hannah Jones, Anna Kauk, Noah Kress-Jones, Casey Lehman, Katie Lewis, Maddyson Lewton, Faith Long, Katherine Mathews, Viktoriia Mayatska, Casey McDaniel, Olivia Miller, Ashly Morris, Kameron Nosko, Kayla Powell, Gabrielle Pyle, Kim Rocca, Lisa Ryan-Howard, Anna Saylor, Justine Schopmeyer, Ashley Seyffarth, Alyssa Smith, ReOnna Smith, Olivia Supper, Ally Thomas, Kayne Witham, Grace Wolfinger and Chris York.
The official ending date of the exhibition is Wednesday, May 6. However, because of the online format, the exhibition will be accessible in perpetuity and will be moved to the past exhibition archives of the gallery’s website once the next exhibition opens.
