APRIL 16, 2009 – The Department of Fine Arts at Pfeiffer University will host its first Senior Art Exhibition "Tacky and Irrelevant" now through May 7 in the Grace and Cameron West Gallery on the Misenheimer campus.  The display is free and open to the public.  
       
The exhibition comprises a number of creative pieces by four graduating seniors. Works by David Barrett, of Kannapolis; Petra Ljubicic, of Asheboro, N.C.; Najja Moon, of Durham, N.C.; and Heidi Ramseur, of Albemarle, will be featured in the show. According to Joshua Cross, assistant professor of art and director of the Grace and Cameron West Gallery, these four students have played integral roles in the development of Pfeiffer’s art program.

In preparation for this display, the students have worked diligently exploring their artistic goals and techniques. Each student artist featured in the exhibit has a unique perspective and style which contributes to the show's diversity. The works on display will include three-dimensional mixed media, paintings, fashion design and photography.
       
The gallery's general hours are from 10 a.m. - 4 p.m. Monday through Friday, except during special events. For more information, contact Joshua Cross, art gallery director, at (704) 463-3160 or joshua.cross@pfeiffer.edu.
