Professor Iain Machell’s Art is on Display this Summer!

Our Fine Arts Program Coordinator and Professor, Iain Machell, has artwork on display at several galleries this summer!

Machell’s stone sculpture, “Quarries,” is currently on display at the Unison Arts Center for the “What’s Next?” outdoor sculpture garden. “What’s Next?” features sculptures and events by thirty-five artists living in the Northeast who represent an emerging art movement known as Eco Materialism. This outdoor exhibition has several connections to SUNY Ulster; it is the initiative of Michael Asbill, a former SUNY Ulster adjunct, and three of the students working on the project are Ulster Fine Arts alums!
