Details From Pougialis

Pougialis is a competition held by the Art and Design department of Columbia College Chicago and judge by full time faculty. This year there were 26 students showing a wide range work, everything from the traditional, to new and innovative work pushing the ever-changing boundaries of art. The outcome of the event to much surprise showed a weakness in the decision-making by A&D faculty. If we as students are trying to push our works to new possibilities, the choices made do not reflect progression forward. In fact if the remaining 24 students were to reflect on the choices one would feel discouraged from stepping out of the safety of historically prominent mediums. I end this with inspirations that the subjectivity received by the institution does not reflect the true conceptions of our paths. –Vincent Alexander Finazzo.
