Student art gallery

7 September 2005

Monash's first student-operated art gallery has been opened at the university's Caulfield campus.

Mr Tim Wilson with MONSU Caulfield vice-president Mr Andy Poon at the gallery opening.

The Caulfield Campus Student Gallery was opened on 18 August by the chair of the Monash University Student Union Board (MONSU) and Monash University Council member, Mr Tim Wilson. The gallery provides a unique venue for students to exhibit their work.

Mr Wilson thanked MONSU Caulfield, Monash University Campus Life (the Monash campus branding of Monyx), the facilities and services department, Caulfield campus manager Ms Helen Dunne and Mr Leslie Eastman, studio coordinator, painting and printmaking, in the Department of Fine Arts.

"The continued effort by so many students and staff will ensure that this facility is able to serve Caulfield Campus students for many years to come," he said.

The gallery's inaugural exhibit is "Spacepork Adventures" -- projected video images offering a light-hearted look at space exploration.

The gallery is in Building D, in the Department of Fine Arts, Faculty of Art and Design.

It was funded by MONSU Caulfield, the Faculty of Art and Design, and Monash University Campus Life.
