Passers-by and staff at the Crawford Art Gallery looked on in admiration today as St Vincent’s Fourth Year Art students took on the role of art gallery guides! Sean Keating’s 1922 oil painting Men of the South and F.E. McWilliam’s 1974 bronze sculpture Girl in a Bomb Blast were both researched by the girls over the last few weeks and today they treated their fellow First Year students to a unique student-led presentation of both artworks. Everyone had a very enjoyable morning, with one First Year student commenting on how brave she thought the Fourth Years were, and how she couldn’t wait to become a TY student so that she could try out being an art gallery guide for herself! Many thanks once more to Emma Klemencic and staff at the Crawford Art Gallery Education Department for their continued support and hospitality shown to the budding artists of St Vincent's.
