COA+A launches virtual gallery

The College of Arts + Architecture has launched a virtual gallery to celebrate graduating seniors in applied art.

The first exhibitions, featuring work by illustration majors, opened on April 20. Other exhibitions feature work by students majoring in graphic design and 2-D and 3-D studio art. All exhibitions will remain online through the summer.

“In these uncertain times, there remains at least one guarantee: Art does not stop in the face of adversity,” wrote Director of Galleries Adam Justice, in his introduction to the site. “As the UNC Charlotte College of Arts + Architecture reaches the conclusion of the 2019-20 academic year with the stay-at-home order, students and faculty have been busy at work in online classrooms and home studios. They have continued to develop creative visions and have persisted to complete thesis projects.”
