The Department of Art and Art History in the College of Arts and Sciences presents the work of Pedro Moses Rodriguez in his solo Bachelor of Fine Arts exhibition. The Symbolism of Women will run through December 17 at the College of Arts and Sciences (CAS) Gallery, located at the Wesley Foundation at 1210 Stanford Drive. In celebration of the exhibition’s opening, there will be a reception for the artist on Wednesday, December 15 from 5 to 9 p.m. Other viewing times can be arranged by appointment.
The BFA is a four-year program with 72 credits completed in the Department of Art and Art History, with the balance of the 120 credits being in general education courses, giving students an in-depth education in the arts combined with a solid University liberal arts education. Graduates often go directly into careers in graphics, photography, museum or gallery work, while some go on to graduate school or start their careers in the fine arts.
A full schedule of exhibitions can be viewed at www.as.miami.edu/art. The public is also invited to visit the University of Miami Wynwood Project Space every second Saturday at 2200-A NW 2nd Avenue, Miami, during the monthly gallery walk to view student, faculty, and alumni works.
