JANUARY 28-MARCH 3
Juror: Ani Garabedian
Ani Garabedian is the Community Arts Coordinator at the Detroit Institute of Arts Museum through which she has coordinated and/or helped create a variety of public community art pieces in Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb counties. She is also a drawing, design, and painting Adjunct Professor at local colleges and universities. Ani holds a regular studio practice of painting, drawing, and experimental works and has shown both locally and nationally, while also rehabbing a historical home in the city of Detroit.
This year’s juror, Ani, said, “It was a pleasure and honor to have the opportunity to view so many pieces and such talent from the BBAC. The breadth of skill and dedication displayed in the submissions was impressive and made the jurying process challenging. I left feeling inspired by all who entered. Because of the large number of exceptional works, I had difficult decisions to make. The diverse work that was chosen for the exhibition demonstrates innovation and knowledge of formal techniques and processes. Also displayed is a clear passion for making and expression. Congratulations to all students and their teachers, especially for pushing through such a challenging year and still clearly producing such strong work.”
GALLERY HOURS: Mon.-Thurs., 9am-5pm; Fri.-Sat., 9am-4pm
