Brilliant class today meeting 2 of our upcoming artists, and to begin brainstorming for the title and text panels.
The students asked great questions! The artists spoke about their traditions, experiences within those traditions & how those intersect in their art practices.
Stay tuned, more to come as we develop this exhibition. We will open on October 26th to celebrate not only these artists but also Dia de los Mu***os on our campus
The connections are magic and we are all proud of our participation.

What’s in a signature? It is the trace of someone’s important negotiation with everything that requires our indelible mark of authority, permission, proof of existence, closure, or proof of ownership.
What is in a brushstroke, an artist print, a clay sculpture or drawing? It is the trace of the artist’s hand that doesn’t always require a signature. We recognize style, color choice, brush stroke, the addition of objects onto surfaces and so on. When an artist leaves us their traces in both the work they leave behind and their signature, that increases the value of that individual mark by denoting the time, the era, and sometimes the place - A signature makes it permanent and solidifies the value of all the marks that went into that particular work - it brings our attention to an end by the artist for that work - it is finished by the artist but is it complete? I would say no…. The viewer gets to complete the work with their own experiences, knowledge, and curiosity.
Come see “New Eyes: Selections from the Fullerton College Collections” on display until Oct. 11th - all of these signatures denote the place and space for these special marks left here by these artists at Fullerton College.
08/17/2023
We’re back! And do we have a treat for you this semester with 2 exhibitions that will feature multiple artists in each.
First up is our museum studies student led selections from the permanent collections show. Each student selected their work last semester and will provide their own write-up on their selected works.
We are very proud of the artwork we have safely tucked away in storage. Each work has been created either on-site by visiting artists, such as Jose Cuevas, 1974 or donated with such love by such greats as the late Wayne Thiebaud. Did you know that Wayne was our first artist in residence in 1972? He was so impressed that he gave to the collection one of his older works from 1964. We are proud to exhibit these works along with many others. We have also invited the photography department to participate in the exhibition - we will exhibit their selections and find out how they reached their photo choices.
Join us on September 7th, 4-6pm for our opening reception. Parking will be free and refreshments will be had.
Please watch this space for progress shots as we welcome in the 2023 fall new and returning museum studies students at who will be setting up the exhibition for all to enjoy.
👋 and @90.1kbpk we’d love to see you again in our art space 🎨

We are proud to name artist Patrick Martinez one of this year's fourteen DCA Cultural Trailblazers. You can see work by Patrick on view now at Fullerton College Art Gallery in the group exhibition "Presence." On view through December 2, 2019, the exhibition addresses the presence of people of color in contemporary culture through work by Patrick and eighteen other contemporary artists. The gallery has evening hours tonight!

Born and raised in the San Gabriel Valley, Patrick Martinez’s L.A. suburban upbringing and his diverse cultural background (Filipino, Mexican and Native American), provided him with a unique lens through which he interprets his surroundings. Influenced by the Hip Hop movement, Martinez cultivated his art practice through graffiti, which later led him to the Art Center College of Design, where he earned a BFA with honors in 2005. Through his facility with a wide variety of media (painting, neon, ceramic and sculpture), Martinez colorfully scrutinizes otherwise everyday realities of suburban and urban life in L.A. with humor, sensitivity and wit.
