Presentation: Women to Watch Exhibit – application to studio teaching/graduate research
- Location: Claire T. Carney Library, Room 314
- Contact: Office of Faculty Development
- Description: Presented by Rebecca Hutchinson (Artisanry). Professor Hutchinson was one of 18 women artists to receive the "Women to Watch Award" and participate in a show at the National Museum of Women in the Arts the past fall.
Artist/Educator/Scholar Rebecca Hutchinson discusses her work in the exhibition "Women to Watch 2015—Organic Matters". Her award winning conceptual work engages closely with process and conceptual development. These attributes of her visual work interface with both her studio and her teaching. In this talk, Ms. Hutchinson suggests technique for applying these processes in various disciplines, as she discusses how she, in turn, applies multi-disciplinary learning in her own work.
Her gallery talk from the exhibit can be viewed at (http://nmwa.org/exhibitions/organic-m).

BARBARA (2012, Christian Petzhold)
In 1980s East Germany, Barbara is a Berlin doctor banished to a country medical clinic for applying for an exit visa. Deeply unhappy with her reassignment and fearful of her co-workers as possible Stasi informants, Barbara stays aloof, especially from the good natured clinic head, Andre. Instead, Barbara snatches moments with her lover as she secretly prepares to defect one day. Despite her plans, Barbara learns more about her life that puts her desires and the people around her in a new light. With her changing perspective, Barbara finds herself facing a painful moral dilemma that forces her to choose what she values.
