from this point forward Showcases UCD Students Art
U
C Davis is breaking down the walls of the exhibition box with from this point forward, a multidisciplinary exhibition by 28 graduate students that includes physical works by students in art, design and theatre, a sound installation, presentations by art history and history students, performances of works by composers, and readings by creative writers.
from this point forward is the first student show at the Jan Shrem and Maria Manetti Shrem Museum of Art which opened in November. The exhibition will be on display through June 30. The museum and all the programs are free and open to the public. “UC Davis has a great tradition of coming together as a creative community to engage ideas and challenges,” said Rachel Teagle, founding director of the museum. “We saw this first student show as an opportunity to celebrate the makers, scholars and researchers across the arts and humanities who are part of that community, and to make their work accessible to all of our visitors.” Some of what’s on tap in “from this point forward”: • Design student Nikitaa Sivaakumar has prototyped an inexpensive solar light for developing countries. • Theatre and dance MFA student Kristine Doiel is showing costumes she designed for the ancient Greek play The Trojan Women. • Phil Acimovic, music composition doctoral student, has interviewed people about sounds and the memories and

emotions they elicit to create an installation composed of snippets of the interviews and the sounds. • Writer Chelsea Hicks Bryan turns part of her novel about a woman of mixed Native American and European heritage into a live retro radio-style program. • Art history major Corrie Hendricks intertwines a hands-on knitting session with a discussion on crafting in today’s political climate.
• Art major Ben Ehrmann’s performance videos “embody a complex narrative of courageous, and at times, humiliating acts that include both violence and humor.” “The creative and scholarly works that make up ‘from this point forward’ will showcase each discipline and each student, and will, in the shared space of the museum, enter dialogue with the work of other disciplines and other students,” said Teagle.
