The "Fifth Year Exhibition 2010," on view in the Anderson Auditorium and Grossman Gallery, presents work by five participants in this year's Fifth Year Certificate program—an intense, all-studio year of independent study. Each artist pursues individual investigations in a wide range of media and scope, from painting and photography to video and installation.
*Taylor Butler's precise and fluid turns on large canvases invent new narratives from familiar elements.
*Hae-Shin Chung's intense, mysterious installations and drawings contemplate both spirituality and the darkest corners of emotion.
*Milo Fay relies on a disappearing medium to celebrate a now marginalized subject, saturating her equestrian photographs with a sense of poetic longing.
*Musician and filmmaker Atusko Ito explores the areas in which rhythm, passion and performance overlap and inform each other in the process of creating both music and art.
*Soojin Kim's gallery of irresistible objects serves as a memory box of happiness and loss.
Fifth Year students also compete for the prestigious Traveling Scholarship Awards, which provide funds to develop their work through travel and culminates with a group show at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
