Visiting ArtistS
UArk Painting regularly hosts visiting artists to speak about their work, research and projects with current students. In addition UArk Drawing, UArk Gallery and the School of Art invite artists to lecture and engage with our students. Through these lectures, discussions and studio visits students are exposed to a wide variety of conversations occurring in contemporary painting and given opportunities to connect with working professionals in their field.
