This inaugural exhibition in Modern Languages, Literatures and Cultures showcases students’ creative works this year as well as in the past. One side of the hallway is sober and pale: writing and lithophanies are placed around a small graffiti piece by local artist Mat Vizbulis. The opposite side is colourful and turbulent, with two children books made by students and the expression of our thanks to Brock Radio for its support of programs in different languages. Cables and Squares brings together texts, images, sounds and performance.
The new issue of ti< (7.1, 2018) is now online. It features creative works by students in French Studies, Studies in Arts and Culture, as well as by Arnie McBay (MIWSFPA) and by the members of The Willow Community at Rodman Hall.
Nous découvrirons les expositions ‘Up Close and In Motion’ (oeuvres de la collection permanente de Rodman Hall), ‘Just Resting My Eyes’ et ‘Core’.
Bienvenue !
