Faculty Successes

Fall 2005

Christopher Ganz had a featured exhibit, The Two Way Mirror: Self-Portraits, at the Fort Wayne Museum of Art’s main gallery in fall 2005. He won a VPA Faculty Development Grant to frame large drawings for the museum exhibition, and the Office of Research and External Support awarded Ganz additional funding for the exhibition. Ganz, an assistant professor, was the awards presenter at the 25th Annual National Print Exhibition at Artlink in summer 2005. Along with seven advanced printmaking students, he attended the Southern Graphics Council’s Annual Nation Printmaking Conference in March 2005— the premier organization and conference in the United States. Students were given the opportunity to meet artists, see contemporary prints from all over the world, exchange work with other printmakers in a portfolio exchange, and exhibit their work in an open portfolio session.

Dana Goodman was one of 12 artists from around the world participating in an artist’s residency in Balatonfured, Hungary. A work—”Ready to be Shared”—created during the residency, is on permanent display at Galley Anette in Csopak, Hungary. Goodman also participated in the Mish-Mash…Again exhibition at the Chesapeake Arts Center with his ceramic and woodsculpture, “The Ram that Invented Tomatoes.” His sculpture “A Little Hot Though” was part of a national exhibition, American Ceramics, at the Guilford Handcraft Center in Guilford, Conn. Associate faculty Robert Schroeder was the recipient of the IPFW Associate Faculty Teaching Award for 2004–05 for teaching metals and sculpture classes.
