LAUNCH
2006 Bachelor of Fine Arts Exhibition

April 28 - May 6, 2006

The Calvin College Art Department presents LAUNCH: 2006 Senior Bachelor of Fine Arts Exhibition from April 28 - May 6 in the Center Art Gallery.   The exhibition features work by senior BFA students Kevin Buist, Craig Hoeksema, Zoe Perkins, and Joseph Post.

Kevin Buist, who works in a variety of mediums, creates work that appropriates elements from a variety of sources.   Although Craig Hoeksema also works with different mediums, his work is unified through the use of graphite, which he uses to achieve different textures and surfaces.   Working primarily in photography, Zoe Perkins created multiple narrative photographs through a project where she interviewed and photographed three women who have worked in strip clubs.   Joe Post's interest in mass media imagery and the relationship between artist and society are evident in his large evocative paintings.

An Exhibition Reception on Friday evening, April 28 from 7 - 9 p.m. will honor the artists.

The barrier-free Center Art Gallery, located on the lower level of the Spoelhof College Center, is open 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Monday through Thursday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Friday, and noon to 4 p.m. on Saturday. There is no admission charge.
