Gallery at UTA, 169 Fine Arts Building

Dr. Fletcher Coleman, Assistant Professor of Art History, invites the UTA community to a closing curatorial walkthrough of the exhibition, Solace in Painting: Reflecting on a Tumultuous Century from 12:00-1:00pm on Friday, March 28, in The Gallery at UTA. Featuring three diasporic artists, Chao Shao-an (1905-1998), Keisho Okayama (1934-2018), and Ann Phong (1957-), the show is the first national traveling exhibition originated by UTA and will travel to the University of Nebraska, Omaha, after closing at UTA on March 29.



In addition, Dr. Coleman is happy to announce that the scholarly catalog produced for the exhibition has been awarded "2025 Outstanding Catalog Produced by a University or College Department" by the Midwest Art History Society (MAHS). This is the 22nd year that MAHS has hosted its annual catalog awards, and the professional organization is one of the few that holds a dedicated exhibition catalog competition. The catalog and exhibition will be recognized next month at the MAHS annual conference in Denver.



We hope to see you at the curatorial walkthrough and, if not, be sure to catch the exhibition before it closes on March 29!
