Recent works by Daniel Anguiano, assistant professor of graphic design in the SFA School of Art, will be featured in this year’s art faculty exhibition, which opens at 6 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 6, in Cole Art Center.
Each year, the faculty exhibition features a wide variety of artworks in ceramics, sculpture, photography, painting, prints, metals and mixed media, according to John Handley, director of SFA art galleries.
“The show represents the continued trajectory of the artists’ work and demonstrates their unique styles and mediums,” he said.
The show also serves to highlight the artistic achievements of SFA faculty artists.
“Outside the classrooms, our faculty members have vibrant artistic careers of their own,” Handley said. “Many have works in museum collections across the country and abroad, and many are also represented by commercial galleries.”
