A plus A Gallery • Venice, Italy
This Boston University Art Galleries exhibition is a selection of works by students of BU Study Abroad Venice and the Boston University College of Fine Arts. Atlantic Exchange presents the skill and talent of young artists emerging onto the art scene.
The School of Visual Arts Venice program provides undergraduate art and design students the exceptional opportunity to develop their practices in a city where art, art history and history are ubiquitously manifest.
Art has always been a journey of exploration, with artists traveling the world in search of new inspirations, perfecting their craft and capturing fleeting moments in a constantly evolving world. For art students, studying abroad transcends mere technique; it becomes a profound journey of self-discovery. Immersing themselves in diverse cultures and artistic traditions ignites their creativity and passion, allowing them to break free from familiar confines and embrace the unknown. This transformative experience enriches their artistic voice, encourages them to experiment with new mediums, and inspires them to create work that resonates on a global scale.
