UNM Live - An Exhibition of Student Work

Professor of Architecture Kristina Yu talks to UNM Live about the end of the year exhibition in the gallery of George Pearl Hall and the work that the students did for the Spring 2010 semester. Yes, the video is a bit much to sit through; but at 1:37 and 4:18 they show my project! Even though she doesn't reference it specifically, I was still really excited to see that my project was part of the video, as well as several of my classmates.  

You can check out more UNM Live videos on YouTube.

George Pearl Hall

After having graduated just several days before, I found myself inextricably drawn to George Pearl Hall.  It was strangely quiet, both in the building and the surrounding campus.  Although my fellow students and I rattled on about how excited we were to leave this place, and all stress that came with it; I must say that I am truly going to miss it.  

The gallery space off of the West entrance was filled with work from graduating students, which was an appreciable nod to their efforts.

The School of Architecture and Planning at The University of New Mexico has found itself in a very unique position.  We have been privileged with a world class building, access to some of the latest technologies, and some great minds as well.  I can only hope that my next step in my education takes me somewhere that can match the first.  

Please take a look at my flickr page for more photos of George Pearl Hall.

The University of New Mexico printmakers put on a gallery showing of some of the students current artwork.  Some of the artists included in the show were Paul Glover, Chelsea Wrightson, Errol Bennet Jr., Guillermo Gomez, Sandy Edwards, Emily McMaster, Anna Reser, and more.  Put on in a mixed used gallery space called Cirq, the show was an impressive presentation of what the UNM Fine Arts Department has to offer.  Brilliant compositions and stories were told through each work, and the talent was enviable.  The closing reception on Friday night not only had great turnout for the artwork, but also for the dance party to follow; beats courtesy of Sandy Edwards.
