This exhibition and accompanying catalog, “Convergence II”, brings together select artwork created by Visual Arts Department students and poems crafted in response to these artworks by NMSA’s Creative Writing & Literature Department. Poetry and visual artwork are experienced as a call and response in the catalog, arranged in pairs according to inspiration and collaboration.
“Convergence” celebrates the inspiration inherent in our creative community at New Mexico School for the Arts and supported by our generous partners at RiskPress Foundation: Charlie Pendergast and Kevin Connor. RiskPress’ offer to sponsor and produce the publication spurred a semester-long collaborative project uniting our two art departments in this second iteration of the “Convergence” publication. We are so grateful for their energy and encouragement!
“Convergence”Opens Friday, January 31, 5-7 pm, with poetry reading at 5:30pm!
Convergence runs through Friday March 7
