February 9, 2005 School Zone: By Cynthia Hodnett But the audience is expanding for several majors whose works are on
display at a marketing agency in Allouez.
Their creations are a part of The Goltz Seering Agency's Creative Coffee
Series, a rotating exhibit in the agency's offices.
A partnership between the UWGB Art Agency and Goltz Seering, the Creative
Coffee Series provides a platform for emerging artists to have their work
displayed and juried.
Judges selected 20 pieces of art for the winter exhibit, which will
be displayed at the agency and at local businesses.
"I'm excited that there's an opportunity like this for art students,"
said Mindy Meyers, a senior whose oil painting and string art piece is
on display at the marketing agency. "It's good to know that something
that you put so much into creating can be appreciated by other people."
Goltz Seering bought several of the art pieces, which will be on permanent
display at the agency. Among them: a sculpture made of pennies, steel
wire and rods, and nylon and webbing. The piece is by Casey Early-Krueger,
a senior and art major. Early-Krueger and another student, Chong Chin,
each received an award for the best artwork as chosen by officials at
the marketing agency.
"Having your art seen by a different group of people outside of an art
show gives your work a different type of audience," Early-Krueger said.
"People who see it hanging there (in the agency) may see and appreciate
it in a different way. It's definitely a confidence booster."
Other students with works on display are Paula Becker, Ashley Bavery,
Melissa Gale, Lexie Hassinger, Molly Le Greve Kayala, Jodi Lieburn, Leah
Lindsley, Lisa Olson, Marian Puckett, Jo Watson and Amy Williams.
