Laid, Placed and Arranged

An exhibition highlighting Department of Art graduates of the MFA program, from 1990-2010.

Laid, Placed and Arranged, the show’s theme is also a nod to Michel Foucault’s influential text, The Order of Things, where he references the act of linking seemingly unrelated objects in which a large number of possible orders glittered separately, in the lawless and uncharted dimension of the heteroclite.

Artists: Laurel Farrin, Hiroyuki Hamada, Francie Hester, Hiroyuki Hamada, Meg Mitchell, Ellington Robinson, and Wilfredo Valladares.

Curated by Taras W. Matia, Assistant Director at the University of Maryland Art Gallery

This exhibition is supported in part by a grant from the Maryland State Arts Council.
