Art
Visual intelligence is more important today than ever before. In our visually oriented society, an understanding of visual communication—historical and contemporary—is vital to an understanding of who we are and what is happening around us. Works of art provide a key to understanding culture, thought and human experience.
At Southern Virginia University, students engage in the challenging artistic experiences in small classroom settings. Our goal is to cultivate literate, articulate artists with both breadth and depth of artistic experience. The culmination of the undergraduate experience is a group exhibition in which each student presents a focused body of work in a particular medium.
"The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance."Aristotle
