Marshall University\u2019s 36th Annual Juried Student Exhibition will be on view March 8-31 in the Birke Art Gallery, located in Smith Hall on the Huntington campus. The exhibit features students\u2019 best artworks from throughout the past two years, as selected by an outside juror.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Indeterminacy and the Measurement Problem<\/em> by artist Gabe Michael Kenney will be on view Feb. 28-March 17 in the Charles W. and Norma C. Carroll Gallery, located in the Visual Arts Center on 3rd<\/sup> Avenue in downtown Huntington.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor students in the School of Art and Design, (the Annual Juried Student Exhibition) is one of the most highly anticipated events of the year,\u201d Gallery Director Jamie Platt said. \u201cThis show is a unique opportunity for student artists. Testing their artwork in an arena of their peers outside of an assignment is something many of these students have not had a chance to do yet. It is exciting to watch them practicing the skill of public presentation that will be a big part of their professional lives.\u201d<\/p>\n

Eight of the artworks will be awarded cash prizes totaling $3,000. This year\u2019s juror is artist and educator Danielle Riede, who grew up in the United States and Iceland, received her Master of Fine Arts in Painting from Virginia Commonwealth University and studied with Daniel Buren at the Kunstakademie Duesseldorf.<\/p>\n

Riede\u2019s international exhibition record includes galleries and museums in Mexico City, Athens, Berlin, New York, and many other cities. Riede is the recipient of numerous awards, including the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts Fellowship, the Virginia Commission for the Arts Fellowship in Sculpture and a New Frontiers Grant from Indiana University. She is currently the Randolph H. Deer Professor of Painting at Herron School of Art and Design at IUPUI (Indiana University\u2013Purdue University Indianapolis).<\/p>\n

The public is invited to a reception from 5-6:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 23. Awards will be announced at 5:30 p.m. The awards presentation will be simulcast to Instagram @marshalluartanddesign.<\/p>\n

The Indeterminacy and the Measurement Problem <\/em>exhibit in the Carroll Gallery features the works of Kenney of Columbus, Ohio, in a cerebral, mixed-media installation combining printmaking, sculpture and performance. Kenney is a conceptual artist interested in the role of consciousness in day-to-day perception. His artworks are inspired by research into \u201cthe Observer Effect,\u201d the disturbance of an observed system by the act of observation.<\/p>\n

The public is invited to a reception for Indeterminacy and the Measurement Problem<\/em>, where visitors to the gallery will have an opportunity to engage with the artist. The reception will be from 4-5:30 p.m. Wednesday, March 9. Kenney will stage a performance during the reception, and immediately following the reception, he will give a talk about his work in Room 209 of the Visual Arts Center.
