Artists, friends, family, and guests at the Opening Reception for the 2022 Pratt in Venice Exhibition, held in Steuben Gallery, Monday, October 24, 2022.
Pratt in Venice has had an exhilarating summer and fall preparing for the 38th annual Pratt in Venice exhibition! Unveiling the latest artwork by our students in Pratt Institute’s Steuben Gallery this past Monday, the opening reception was a whirlwind of celebration and excitement for the Pratt in Venice program. We were very proud to show our 2022 cohort’s fabulous accomplishments. Works on display included paintings, prints, mixed media, installation, 3D modeling, mosaic, and posters showcasing student art historical research.
The 2022 cohort also made a site-specific installation drawing in the entrance gallery of a Timeline of Venetian Art, reflecting on the voluminous number of masterpieces studied during the summer.
The night was a huge success! The opening reception was crowded and bustling with attendees, including Pratt Institute President Frances Bronet, numerous alumni/ae of the Pratt in Venice program, practicing artists, interested students, faculty, administrators including Vice Presidents, Deans, and the Provost, friends, family, and supporters.
Participants in the 2022 program generously donated select work in the exhibition to a silent auction, the proceeds of which completely benefit the Pratt in Venice Scholarship Fund. Select works from the silent auction will be made available online through the end of the year.
A catalogue of the exhibition, featuring over 400 works in all media, is in preparation.
