Abstract

Incredible as it may seem to those of us who were here when the Division of Fine Arts opened in the fall of 1988, with this exhibit we are celebrating our 15th graduating class from the BFA Program in Visual Arts. Simple arithmetic suggests that since 1992 literally hundreds of wonderfully trained and educated painters, printmakers, photographers, sculptors and multi-media artists have left the school to pursue their careers across the province, across Canada, and around the world. The significance of the effect these graduates are having on the cultural life of Newfoundland an Labrador cannot be overestimated. The variety and range of talent you see in the work of this year's graduates is a perfect example of the quality of imagination and craft that our students are contributing to the artistic community in this province, and in doing so they enrich all of our lives.
