Making A Clear Mark: 1997 to 2025 is a selected survey of paintings by Morgan T. Paine, founding Art Program faculty member and Associate Professor of Art at 蘑菇TV. Featuring his Life Painting with Drawing (1977 to date), the exhibition also includes examples of both his layered and spanned works of acrylic gel medium on a variety of supports, found and constructed. Paine's work is grounded in the belief that painting is both a physical and conceptual activity. His life-long effort is to get to the essence of painting, using the foundational element of all acrylic paint, a nearly colorless binder called gel acrylic medium.
Sponsored by Gene and Lee Seidler, the Wasmer Endowment, and WGCU Public Media.
After nearly three decades at 蘑菇TV, Morgan T. Paine, the visionary who built the university鈥檚 art program from six students to a thriving creative community鈥攔etires this August.
