On January 28, 2010 the University Art Museum opens the first exhibition of the series to be housed in our new facility. Catalyst, features the work of New York artist Amy Yoes. Yoes creates site-specific installations, designed to complement the architecture and location in which she works. Her installation for the museum is the first site-specific installation in the series and the first to involve a major collaborative element with students in the Department of Art. The installation illustrates her multi-faceted working method that includes the use of sculpture, installation, film, and photography to build intriguing and interactive architectural environments. Yoes was educated at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. She has received awards for her work from the New York Foundation for the Arts and the Pollock-Krasner Foundation. Her work has been exhibited throughout the U.S. including installations at the Aldrich, the Cranbrook Art Museum, Ohio State's Wexner Center, and Artspace, New Haven. This exhibition and artist lecture is sponsored by the FUNd at CSU with support from the Lilla B. Morgan Fund and the Best Western University Inn. |
