Eat My Heart Out List of Selected Works

(u)ntitled and CAO would like to thank all of you who submitted artwork for consideration to the Eat My Heart Outexhibition.  We received many lovely pieces depicting the monsterous side of love.  So many that  we were only able to use a few.  An anonymous jury selected the artwork to be displayed.  We looked for work that stayed close to our theme and was appropriate to hang in a public gallery as well as trying to include a variety of media. Below we have listed the names of those people whose artwork was chosen.  If your name is not listed you can pick up your artwork Monday through Thursday 10-4 at the Wignall Museum. 

Thank you so much for contributing to our show, and be on the lookout for another opportunity to show your artwork in the future.

Edgar Imagines returning to the Wig after Winter Break

Day 1: Today we returned back to work at the Wignall… the mood was jovial but a darkness lurked in the back of our minds… had Roman picked up a faux english accent? There had to be some way to address it without offending. Then he spoke “Ello everyone just wanted to say bangers and mash and what not, now having said that we should all pip pip cherrio… TO BE CONTINUED

(u)ntitled:365 days at the Wignall Museum

Hi Followers!  

 (u)ntitled: The Wignall Museum Curatorial Club has started this blog so we can share some of the goings on at the Wignall.  Currenty all of our officers are student workers at the Wig and can be found there Monday through Thursday during opening hours.  We have a good time working at the Wig-we get to be hands on with the art, talk face to face with the artists, and help with the nitty gritty of running a Museum.  Some days it’s hard work, other days it’s chatting with who ever comes in to visit.  Personally I think being a student worker at the Wig is the best job on campus.

The point of this blog is going to be to share some of the behind the scenes fun.  It will be mostly blogs and pics, but will see what else we can come up with. Right now it’s Edgar and I posting, but I am hoping that more members want to join us.  Topics can be anything related to the art scene at the Wignall.  All you have to do is ask and I will make it happen!

Here’s hoping for a great spring 2012 semester!

Sheila, President of (u)ntitled
