IAIA STUDENTS STRUT THEIR CREATIVE SIDES AT THE UNHINDERED, UNEDITED “ART IN THE RAW” SHOW
Every semester at IAIA, those students who have been assigned one of the scarce on-campus studio spaces have no misconceptions as to why they are in temporary possession of a windowless white cubicle with 8-ft walls.
With less than ten studios available, the fortunate ones know that others’ eyes are closely observing them, which is why the studio artists are quick to participate in the bi-annual “Art in the Raw” exhibition. This semester’s show, which runs for seven days, includes work from more than 30 IAIA student artists ranging from first-year freshmen to fourth-year seniors.
“Art in the Raw gives all IAIA students an opportunity to use their considerable talents to make whatever kind of statement they wish,” says Karl Duncan, president of the Associated Student Government of IAIA. “For those interested in discovering where the leading edge of contemporary American Indian art is heading, art in the Raw is an opportunity to witness what students at the nation’s top American Indian art program are creating for their selves and for their friends.”
