Marshall University Art Professor Ian Hagarty attended public screenings and the award ceremony for the European Cultural Centre\u2019s Personal Structures \u2014Reflections<\/em> exhibition, held in conjunction with the Venice Biennale 2022. A work by Hagarty and Marshall Photography Associate Professor Danny Kaufmann, Riverine<\/em>, was featured.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the biggest exhibition opportunity of our careers,\u201d said Hagarty, who has taught painting, drawing and other courses. \u201cWe wanted to embrace this opportunity to challenge ourselves to do something different and meaningful. Knowing that there was going to be this massive international audience, we wanted to showcase where we live in this significant moment and saw it as a unique opportunity to promote West Virginia in a positive way.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Venice Biennale is a premier international art exhibition and the world\u2019s oldest biennial exhibition. According to the European Cultural Centre, it attracts 500,000 visitors from April through November, so the opportunity to exhibit during the Venice Biennale brings international attention to the New River Gorge National Park and West Virginia. Riverine<\/em> celebrates the park and reflects its rich anthropological, cultural and geological chronology.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were trying to represent what we were learning about the park through our artistic practice and sensibilities,\u201d Hagarty said. \u201cWe also wanted the piece to be something that neither Danny nor I have ever done before.\u201d<\/p>\n

The two professors received the Marshall University Distinguished Artists and Scholars group award for Riverine<\/em> in 2022.\u00a0 To produce and exhibit Riverine<\/em>, Hagarty and Kaufmann received major support from the Chiericozzi family, Marshall\u2019s College of Arts and Media, the Marshall University Foundation and the Marshall University Research Corporation (MURC). Both professors plan to use this experience to develop new curricula within the School of Art and Design.<\/p>\n
