Faculty Collects
In the tradition of artists collecting the work of other artists, this exhibition of art from the personal collections of PAFA faculty demonstrated the range and diversity of faculty tastes and interests. The exhibition displayed approximately 50 works in a variety of disciplines, media, and subject matters. Prints by Howard Hodgkin, and Bonnard and Joan Mitchell shared space with historic landscape paintings, abstractions from a number of artists, Indian miniatures and Japanese prints, figure paintings by Philip Geiger, and interiors by Mitzi Melnicoff. Artists do not always confine themselves to collecting art. With the paintings and prints, there were model boats and turtle shells, and mysterious wire sculpture.
