"Site Citations: A Group Show of Site-Based Wall Illustrations" is currently on display in the Library. The show presents installations by students in the Beginning Drawing class taught by fine arts professor Avantika Bawa. You will find a number of installations scattered throughout the Library. Some are easy to locate, while some just creep up on you.

The works were informed by the interior architecture of the library, and its function as a place of both research and rejuvenation. Each installation takes into account the site where it is installed, either by responding directly to the architecture around, or the function of that particular area. In some cases, the works are the result of an imagination gone wild, while thinking of an alternative purpose for that location. Simply put, each installation ‘cites its site’ through a careful choice of form and content.

Included in the show are works by Alyona Bobrick, Alaina Bocci, Matthew Gisby, Roxy Hong, Robin Hunt, Shayla Lam, Seleny Calixto Luna, Alexander McAllister, Kaylee Pham, Sabrina Polehn, Natalie Quinn, Acoya Rehak, Megan Robb, Elaina Sundwall, Lilly Tan, Andrew Templin and Madiera Vath.
