Seeking SPARK Exhibition Intern Opportunity - Help Wanted - $700 Stipend
SPARK Exhibition Intern
Seeking an Exhibition Intern to work with the Curator and Assistant Curator of the upcoming SPARK V exhibition and related programming, which presents to work of UMBC and Towson University faculty and student artists, at the Peale Museum in Baltimore from mid-January to mid-April.

This role will generally support the planning and execution of programming at the Peale Museum and, with active mentorship, take a gradually increasing leadership role in producing aspects of the SPARK exhibition that highlight UMBC and Towson University student artwork.

Ideally, this will be an internship for credit for a student with a major or minor in Art History and Museum Studies but those with other majors are welcome to apply. While not a paid position, in addition to credit, there is a $700 stipend for this role.

Candidates should be organized, detail-oriented, and able to work remotely and in person (which requires proof of vaccination and masking per Peale Museum policy.)

To be considered for this role, please email a resume and letter of interest to SPARK Curator Catherine Borg at cborg@umbc.edu.

The deadline to apply is December 5.

For this episode of BMoreArt Conversations Gary Kachadourian is interviewed by Jack Livingston. Gary is an IMDA MFA Program alumnus - a visual artist and curator born in 1957 in Baltimore, Maryland. 

He makes pencil drawings of everyday places and objects – like giant dumpsters, chain link fences, and the interior of his own bathroom. Gary’s drawings are designed to be photo-copied and enlarged to the actual size of his subjects. These giant Xeroxes are exhibited, and also distributed as printed booklets, prints, posters, or 3D objects.

The new center will offer a variety of imaginative art experiences, including a community commons, where Glebes and The Loading Dock will produce artworks onthe theme of ‘home.’

Seeing the BMA as a metaphoric house to Baltimore’s greatest cultural assets, Glebes anticipates creating an interactive environment in which audiences can consider their personal relationships to the materials of home and to the objects of the museum. The project will explore how audiences’ relationships with those materials, and their individual habitats, connect them to the larger notion of place and environment. ]]> IMDA MFA Program alumna Marian Glebes, in partnership with the non-profit The Loading Dock, has been selected for a year-long project to be produced for the BMA’s new center for learning and... http://www.thingsonshelves.net https://beta.my.umbc.edu/api/v0/pixel/news/51843/guest@my.umbc.edu/e2152ff134289297e072fd82dd1846b0/api/pixel art baltimore glebes imda marian mfa museum of program CIRCA https://beta.my.umbc.edu/groups/circa https://assets3-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/a4588b2238c4244567744117f04422c4/xsmall.png?1608565293 https://assets4-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/a4588b2238c4244567744117f04422c4/original.jpg?1608565293 https://assets1-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/a4588b2238c4244567744117f04422c4/xxlarge.png?1608565293 https://assets1-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/a4588b2238c4244567744117f04422c4/xlarge.png?1608565293 https://assets1-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/a4588b2238c4244567744117f04422c4/large.png?1608565293 https://assets3-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/a4588b2238c4244567744117f04422c4/medium.png?1608565293 https://assets4-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/a4588b2238c4244567744117f04422c4/small.png?1608565293 https://assets3-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/a4588b2238c4244567744117f04422c4/xsmall.png?1608565293 https://assets4-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/a4588b2238c4244567744117f04422c4/xxsmall.png?1608565293 CIRCA https://assets2-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/thumbnails/news/000/051/843/1d8f02b8abb799feb4dec41bf6d7a3b9/xxlarge.jpg?1431107164 https://assets4-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/thumbnails/news/000/051/843/1d8f02b8abb799feb4dec41bf6d7a3b9/xlarge.jpg?1431107164 https://assets4-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/thumbnails/news/000/051/843/1d8f02b8abb799feb4dec41bf6d7a3b9/large.jpg?1431107164 https://assets3-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/thumbnails/news/000/051/843/1d8f02b8abb799feb4dec41bf6d7a3b9/medium.jpg?1431107164 https://assets3-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/thumbnails/news/000/051/843/1d8f02b8abb799feb4dec41bf6d7a3b9/small.jpg?1431107164 https://assets4-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/thumbnails/news/000/051/843/1d8f02b8abb799feb4dec41bf6d7a3b9/xsmall.jpg?1431107164 https://assets2-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/thumbnails/news/000/051/843/1d8f02b8abb799feb4dec41bf6d7a3b9/xxsmall.jpg?1431107164 5 0 true Fri, 08 May 2015 13:48:32 -0400 IMDA Alumnus Timothy Noble appears in Sculpture Magazine The Semi-Automatic Chalkboard gets national attention
From Laura McGough's March 2015 Sculpture Magazine Review:

Timothy Noble’s The Semi-Automatic Chalkboard, a robotically controlled drawing machine, offers a timely consideration of artistic labor. Using open-source software and servo motors to run coded motions, the chalkboard etches out reproductions of sketches created by Charles E. Burchfield in preparation for the oil painting Grain Elevators (1932–38). Working much like an old daisy printer, the automated machine interprets each original drawing by methodically positioning and repositioning itself across the blackboard as it prepares to lay down another stroke.  ]]> From Laura McGough's March 2015 Sculpture Magazine Review: Timothy Noble’s The Semi-Automatic Chalkboard, a robotically controlled drawing machine, offers a timely consideration of artistic... http://sculpture.org/documents/scmag15/mar_15/mar15_reviews.shtml https://beta.my.umbc.edu/api/v0/pixel/news/51651/guest@my.umbc.edu/2bf101390159ec1cd7049c422c582353/api/pixel 3-d imda magazine mfa noble open printing program robot sculpture software source tim CIRCA https://beta.my.umbc.edu/groups/circa https://assets3-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/a4588b2238c4244567744117f04422c4/xsmall.png?1608565293 https://assets4-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/a4588b2238c4244567744117f04422c4/original.jpg?1608565293 https://assets1-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/a4588b2238c4244567744117f04422c4/xxlarge.png?1608565293 https://assets1-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/a4588b2238c4244567744117f04422c4/xlarge.png?1608565293 https://assets1-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/a4588b2238c4244567744117f04422c4/large.png?1608565293 https://assets3-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/a4588b2238c4244567744117f04422c4/medium.png?1608565293 https://assets4-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/a4588b2238c4244567744117f04422c4/small.png?1608565293 https://assets3-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/a4588b2238c4244567744117f04422c4/xsmall.png?1608565293 https://assets4-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/avatars/groups/000/000/746/a4588b2238c4244567744117f04422c4/xxsmall.png?1608565293 CIRCA https://assets2-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/thumbnails/news/000/051/651/f13573e13bf730fdfd555c1e8516d251/xxlarge.jpg?1430408593 https://assets3-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/thumbnails/news/000/051/651/f13573e13bf730fdfd555c1e8516d251/xlarge.jpg?1430408593 https://assets1-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/thumbnails/news/000/051/651/f13573e13bf730fdfd555c1e8516d251/large.jpg?1430408593 https://assets2-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/thumbnails/news/000/051/651/f13573e13bf730fdfd555c1e8516d251/medium.jpg?1430408593 https://assets3-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/thumbnails/news/000/051/651/f13573e13bf730fdfd555c1e8516d251/small.jpg?1430408593 https://assets2-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/thumbnails/news/000/051/651/f13573e13bf730fdfd555c1e8516d251/xsmall.jpg?1430408593 https://assets2-beta.my.umbc.edu/system/shared/thumbnails/news/000/051/651/f13573e13bf730fdfd555c1e8516d251/xxsmall.jpg?1430408593 1 0 true Thu, 30 Apr 2015 11:46:47 -0400 "HIDDEN WORDS" by Hadieh Shafie Leila Heller Gallery publishes a beautiful monograph Leila Heller Gallery published a beautiful catalogue of a selection of IMDA MFA Program alumna Hadieh Shafie's works "HIDDEN WORDS" with a forward by Maryam Ekhtiar, Associate Curator, Department of Islamic Art, The Metropolitan Museum of Art and an essay by Thyrza Nichols Goodeve, an Art Writer who teaches at the School of Visual Arts in the MFA Art Practice Program.

Photographer and IMDA MFA program alumna Nino Trentinella returned home to capture the desolate beauty of the structures used during the five-day war between Russia and Georgia. 

A Foreign Affairs summary of the war notes: 

 “At first glance, the Russian-Georgian war of August 2008 seemed little more than the stuff of adventure-book fantasy: a reawakened empire going to battle against an old viceroyalty over a mountainous principality of negligible strategic value to either side. But it has had momentous consequences.”
