Umbra Art Show

Yesterday evening, December 5th, was the Umbra Institute’s thrice-annual Student Art Exposition. Refreshments were served while student artists talked about their pieces with other students, faculty, staff and (a pleasant surprise!) a respectable number of visitors from the community. One room was dedicated to photography where the students explained the variety of techniques they had learned this semester (contact printing, sepia toning, hand-coloring). The other large aula, on the other hand, was dedicated to painting and drawing, and had the standard still-lifes as well as a number of landscapes and other Perugia scenes. There was the cheery atmosphere of a Parisian vernissage inside, a perfect end to an enjoyable and artistic semester.
