SMFA Traveling Scholars

This year’s “SMFA Traveling Scholars” exhibition features works by five Museum School alumni who each received the prestigious Traveling Scholarship Award in 2008. The artists traveled locally and internationally and produced a new body of work on view in the exhibition. Fresh and energetic, each provides insight into the investigations of today’s young artists. Lizi Brown, who traveled to Europe, presents a series of paintings forming a narrative; photographer Michael Bühler-Rose, who spent time in India, continues exploring issues surrounding the exotic; Liz Cohen revisited Germany to expand on her Bodywork project; Wendy Jean Hyde’s installation is based on her research in Iceland; and Christopher Lamberg-Karlovsky explored New England, expanding his installation of small paintings.
