The Color Bleeding
Andres Montenegro - Featured Faculty Exhibition

Experience a profound journey of color through the eclectic, whimsical, and futuristic works of Professor Andres Montenegro. A master of easel and canvas, and CGI software, Montenegro has learned what color means in terms of a conscious practice that goes beyond the intuitive mixing of pigments. This can’t-miss exhibition explores his desire to mix digital and physical media into artistic communion, and features works in traditional oils, 3D sculpture, digital art, and virtual reality technology.
