MOUNT VERNON -- Paintings, drawings and monotypes by Vicky Grube and Lisa Schoenfielder will be exhibited at Cornell College's Peter Paul Luce Gallery Feb. 22 through March 21.
An opening reception for the artists is 2 to 4 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 22.
The two exhibitions -- Grube's "Passengers" and Schoenfielder's "Everything I Want" -- are unpretentious examinations of the artists' personal experiences. Grube holds a master of fine arts in theater arts from the University of Iowa; Schoenfielder has a master of fine arts in printmaking and a doctorate in art education from the university.
Grube's work in the visual arts has been honored by the Vermont Arts Council, the Iowa Arts Council, the National Endowment for the Arts and the Nelson-Atkins Museum in Kansas City, Mo. She is pursuing a doctorate in art education and is a teacher at the Preucil School preschool in Iowa City.
Schoenfielder's awards and honors include purchase awards from many national drawing and print competitions including the Philadelphia Print Club, the Knoxville Museum of Art and the University of Hawaii. She received a Vermont Studio Fellowship for fall 2004. She is an associate professor of art at Viterbo University in LaCrosse, Wis.
The Peter Paul Luce Gallery is located in McWethy Hall on the Cornell campus. Gallery hours are 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday and 2-4 p.m. Sunday. Admission is free.
