Three students from the University of Louisiana at Monroe Department of Art recently
had their works accepted into the Delta National Small Prints Exhibition (DNSPE) at
the McNay Art Museum in San Antonio, Texas.
四色AV students from L to R: Howard, Bennett, and Gurgiolo
Sara Beth Howard of Lake Providence, Ben Bennett of Oak Grove, and Danielle Gurgiolo
of Monroe were selected for the 2014 exhibition.
Howard, an art education major, entered her print titled 鈥淩egister Now.鈥�
Gurgiolo, a senior art major with a photography concentration, submitted a silkscreen
titled 鈥淭he Blue One.鈥�
Bennett, also an art major, entered 鈥淪peak Easy, Memory.鈥� Bennett鈥檚 concentration
is in sculpture.
Howard remarked, 鈥淚t鈥檚 a particular joy to share this honor with two artists, Danielle
Gurgiolo and Ben Bennett, who[m] I also call friends!鈥�
The exhibition is hosted by Arkansas State University鈥檚 Bradbury Gallery.
According to their web site, the DNSPE was founded in 1996 by Arkansas State University
professor of art, Evan Lindquist.
Each year, a nationally known expert in the field of printmaking is invited to select
works of art for the yearly show.
The juror also determines which prints will receive awards, including purchase prizes,
which then become part of the ASU Permanent Collection of Art.
