Hyperallergic Reviews Roski MFA Art 2021 Thesis Exhibitions
Matt Stromberg of Hyperallergic presents a roundup of work by graduating MFA students at USC Roski School
“Every spring and summer, MFA programs mount exhibitions to showcase the work of graduating students, offering audiences the opportunity to see the next wave of emerging artists before their work shows up in galleries and museums. As a result of COVID-19 protocols, many schools were forced to pivot to online presentations last year, or cancel or delay them. This season, some schools, like Otis College of Art and Design, opted to stick to online viewing rooms for graduate work, while others made the decision to stage in-person exhibitions with pandemic precautions in place. Two of those schools in the Los Angeles area are the USC Roski School of Art and Design and UC Riverside.”
