About
The Grunwald Gallery of Art (formerly the SoFA Gallery) presents contemporary works by both professional and student artists in a special exhibition format. Exhibits incorporate art from a variety of contemporary genres and approaches, and can be experimental or traditional. The Gallery is conceived as a visual art laboratory with artists participating in the installation of their works and interaction with students and the public is encouraged. The Gallery hosts over thirty exhibits annually of students from the Henry Radford Hope School of Fine Arts, focusing on work by advanced undergraduate, BFA and MFA students. The Grunwald Gallery frequently collaborates with artists, scientists and scholars to produce exhibits that interpret visual art in a broader scientific or humanities context.
