October 14 - December 7, 2022
From Del Mar College:
“The Art & Drama Department is pleased to announce the Del Mar College Art Faculty Exhibition, running October 14, 2022, to December 7, 2022, at the Joseph A. Cain Memorial Art Gallery on Heritage Campus.
The exhibition features over 50 original artworks by 14 faculty artists, including Amorette V. Garza-Morales, Kerstin Dale, Nate Ditzler, Gerardo Cobarruvias, Loring Baker, Randy Flowers, Ann Flowers, Day Wheeler, Mike Stephens, Kitty Welsh-Dudics, Diana Pena, Ken Rosier, Bradford Eilering and Ashley Thomas.
This free exhibition opens to the public on Friday, October 14th, 6:30-8:30pm. The opening reception will provide light snacks and cash bar outside the Cain Gallery.
From digital photography to pencil drawing, oil painting to ceramic sculpture, this mix of work by established and new faculty has something for everyone, while highlighting the talented educators who have worked at Del Mar College.
Nate Ditzler, a recently hired assistant professor of ceramics, grew up on the island of O´ahu, in the state of Hawai´i. Ditzler fabricates whimsical ceramic pieces that reference Minimal Art as well as Pixar Studio Animations. (Ditzler’s “Unreal Weather” received the Joseph A. Cain Memorial Purchase Award in the 2021 National Drawing & Small Sculpture Show).
The work of assistant professor of architecture Bradford Eilering explores architecture at the intersection of fine art. Eilering’s steel paintings, “Memory” and “Merge,” display rough textures and corroded metallic surfaces reminiscent of the U.S. Rust Belt.
Adjunct instructor Ashley Thomas brings life to mundane objects, such as seashells, through monumental and meticulously shaded drawings. Kerstin Dale, associate professor of art, calls attention to the fragility of the Grand Canyon with elegant, black-and-white photos.
Gallery hours are Mondays through Thursdays from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and on Fridays from 9 a.m. until noon. For more info, contact the Art Program at [email protected] or 361-698-1216.
