The artists and artwork represented in this catalog document the M.F.A. Program in theDepartment of Art at Miami University from 2008-12. The variety of conceptual and stylisticapproaches reflects a diverse and rigorous program. We encourage each M. F. A.candidate to build a distinctive and relevant studio practice driven by their individualaesthetic sensibility. Within the two dimensional area studios (painting and printmaking)and three dimensional area studios (ceramics, metals and sculpture), graduate students andfaculty form a challenging, but intimate and collaborative community that encourages crossdisciplinary engagement.
