PRESS INFORMATION: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The University of Hawaii Art Gallery is pleased to present its upcoming exhibition schedule. The Faculty Exhibition kicks off the fall semester with recent work by current art faculty at the Department of Art and Art History, University of Hawaii at Manoa. Please join the artists for the opening reception on September 4 from 3:00 - 5:00 p.m. The exhibition runs through September 30.

Fourteen visiting artists from Pacific Rim countries have just arrived for the East-West Ceramics Collaboration V workshop at the Department of Art and Art History, University of Hawaii at Manoa. Many people are familiar with the four previous programs that have been organized by Suzanne Wolfe, professor of art. The first collaboration was held in 1995. This current workshop runs from July 11 through August 5. The workshop events program begins July 14 and includes presentations by the artists and an open house.

Visitors are welcome to drop by the ceramics courtyard to see the artists and their works. The artists ask that visitors avoid coming by at meal times, and that they respect the artists who are working.

The artwork created during the workshop will be featured in the exhibition East-West Ceramics Collaboration V at the University of Hawaii Art Gallery from October 23 through December 9, 2011. The diverse works highlight the cultural, technical, and conceptual exchanges that occurred among the artists during the workshop. The opening reception is scheduled for October 23 from 3:00 - 5:00 p.m.

The schedules for the East-West Ceramics program and the UH Art Gallery are below and in the attachments. The artists' presentations, open house, opening receptions, and exhibitions are free and open to the public. Parking fees may apply.

Please share this information with others who may be interested. For more information about the East-West Ceramics workshop and events please contact Suzanne Wolfe at 956-5264.

We look forward to seeing you soon.
