INLANDIA opens at the Wignall Museum at Chaffey College

Rancho Cucamonga, CA - Chaffey College and the Wignall Museum are pleased to present Inlandia. Like the 2007-2008 College Book of the same name, Inlandia assembles a group of artists who explore disparate ideas that make the Inland Empire a place with a cultural landscape all its own. The artists in Inlandia are based in TX, MN, OR, NY and CA, but regardless of their proximity to the Inland area, their works are informed directly by this regions political and social landscape or investigate ideas relevant to the IE community. Inlandia surveys the Inland Empire’s status as the fastest growing region in Southern California, the resulting suburban sprawl and ecological impact on the area, the beauty and inspiration of the landscape of the sprawling IE territory, and the characters that make this region unique and diverse. Artists utilize various media to comment on, record and realize the Inland Empire.

Inlandia features work by Edith Abeyta (CA), Adam Belt (CA), Sasha Bezzubov (NY), Margarita Cabrera (TX), Misty Cervantes(CA), Samantha Fields (CA), The Institute for Figuring (CA), Roman Jaster (CA), Sant Khalsa (CA), Kimberly Kolba (OR), Amy Maloof (CA), Michelle Mayer (CA), Thomas McGovern (CA), Jessica Newman-Skrentny (CA), David Rathman (MN), Alex Slade(CA), Jessica Swanson (CA), and Roger Tilton (CA).

Inlandia opens Monday, January 28 and runs through Saturday, March 1, 2008. An artist’s talk featuring various Inlandia artists (TBA) will be held on Tuesday, January 29, 2008 from 6:00-7:00 p.m. at the Wignall Museum, immediately followed by an artists’ reception at the Wignall Museum from 7:00 – 9:00 p.m. The exhibition and reception are free and open to the public.

CSUN represented by 6 speakers @ AHSC

On behalf of several members of the Department who attended this symposium I would like to extend congratulations to five graduate students (Kris Shoemaker, Art History, Deana Hight, Art History, Briana Simmons, Art History, Christine Terry, Art Education and Jennifer Smith, Art History) who presented at the recent Art Historians of Southern California Annual meeting, held at Pepperdine University. Each student spoke on her MA thesis work in a polished and professional talk. I have even heard of one student who got a job offer after her talk!

Prof. Peri Klemm delivered a revealing lecture on "Labor Theatre: The Birth of the Cabbage Patch Kids at Babyland General" which was very well received.

AHSC is a CAA affiliate that includes student and faculty members at the major LA area institutions, from Irvine to Santa Barbara. This year's presenters included students and faculty from UCLA, USC, CSU Long Beach, CSU Channel Islands, Otis and the Getty Museum. A very impressive crowd, and all the more impressive given that CSUN was represented by 6 speakers.

Warmest congratulations to all!
