About the Exhibition

The Kellogg University Art Gallery welcomes the Cal Poly Pomona campus community, students and their families, faculty, staff, administrators, and the public to Poly-kroma 2019

The 2D3D Juried Exhibition is a competition-based exhibition and displays the work of students in the Bachelor of Fine Art program features art and graphic design work by students at all academic levels. This  2D3D Juried Art Exhibition features Fine Art and Visual Communication Design by students at all academic levels.  It is a juried competitive exhibition where students are awarded monetary scholarship prizes.  This year’s exhibition was juried by: Fine Artist, Ismael de Anda III; Alumna and Graphic Designer, Marissa Klymkiw; and Graphic Design Professional, Patricia Moritz. 

Reviewing 137 submissions with over 178 component parts by 52 students in 3 rounds of eliminations, the jurors deliberated at length, over 6 hours, to make the 66 selections of artworks exhibited here. On first viewing, jurors focused on the “stand-outs” and artworks with the most originality. On the subsequent rounds, they considered concept and craft.  Overall, jurors considered and discussed craftsmanship and presentation, skill in the technical use of media, as well as creative execution of content and concept. After making their final selections, the jurors very quickly honed-in on those pieces they granted top prizes to special images and objects that also contain unique qualities that set them apart from the rest. From there, jurors nominated and unanimously agreed on First, Second, Third Place, and Honorable Mention Awards in the Fine Art and Visual Communication Design categories.
