The School of Visual Arts in New York City begins its spring 2024 semester this week, and the College has announced a robust slate of events and exhibitions programming for the coming months.
Hear from curators and photographers working all over the world at talks hosted by SVA’s MA Curatorial Practice and MPS Digital Photography programs; see lesser-known work by the late artist Marshall Arisman, founding chair of SVA’s MFA Illustration as Visual Essay program, at “Does That Make Sense?”; and experience photography, animation and more by the College’s undergraduate and graduate students at one of the many departmental shows happening this winter and spring.
