About the Art and Artists
Beyond the Compass, Beyond the Square showcases work produced by students in MICA’s Interdisciplinary and Artists: Sculpture course, Conversations as Muse. During this semester-long course, students were encouraged by faculty member Jann Rosen-Queralt to explore ideas about mapping, site-specificity and how those ideas could relate to the artists’ creative process. The exhibition reflects the unique artistic conversation and the diverse ways that each artist interpreted a fixed theme. The art was developed over the course of the fall 2007 semester, with student artists presenting proposals to students in the Exhibition Development Seminar, faculty members, mentors, and representatives of MICA and the Walters Art Museum.
