Young Art 2011: Making Multiples
April 16, 2011 through May 29, 2011
Representing the 41st exhibition of this San Diego tradition, Young Art 2011: Making Multiples presents art that explores the repetition of images and ideas created by some of the region’s most talented young artists. The exhibition also features selected prints from the Museum’s collection, some being shown for the firsttime, and rare books from the Museum's Library’s Collection.
This year’s theme, Making Multiples, challenged educators and students to think broadly, and to create works that are part of a series or that might include a similar subject represented multiple times, as seen in the exhibition’s signature lithograph, Happy Butterfly Day (1955) by Andy Warhol. The students’ work features ceramics, photography, and digital art, with a strong representation of printmaking in almost all of its forms. The works in Young Art connect to works of art from the permanent collection that are on view in theexhibition and to other current Museum exhibitions exploring similar media.
Young Art 2011 features 145 student works of art, including several collaborative efforts, which allows close to 350 student artists to be represented in the Museum exhibition. In addition to the works of art exhibited here in the Museum’s galleries, Young Art satellite displays are also located at several library branches across San Diego, as well as in the new Center for Community and Cultural Arts gallery space at the Jacobs Center for Neighborhood Innovation at Market Creek Plaza.
