For those planning to apply to our program, a couple of updates:

We are now accepting applications in Slate. This will help us communicate better with applicants than our old system.

Our pre-application packet can now also be submitted in Slate, instead of by email.

Our priority deadline for Summer 2025 or Fall 2025 applications is March 1.

Swinging Mind, Unfolded Senses showcases artists from SAIC’s Low Residency MFA Program, now in its second summer.  If you are in Chicago do not miss this exciting group of international artists who call Chicago home for six weeks every summer.

Opening Reception: Friday, July 10, 4:00-5:30pm Location: LeRoy Neiman Center, Student Union Galleries, 37 South Wabash Avenue

Prompted by the novel Marius the Epicurean: His Sensations and Ideas (1885) by Walter Pater, this summer six artists from the MFA Low Residency program will explore sensations in relation to artistic process.  Each work in the MFA Low Residency Summer Exhibition is an intimate experience that uses the senses as a method of research.  The artists show how perception of materials and textures can reinterpret personal experience in time, space, and memory.  

Participating Artists: 

Mohamad Kanaan

Sandrine Schaefer

Jacqueline Weaver 

Caroline Wright

Kate Watson-Wallace 

Carly Zufelt 

Works juried by: 

Naomi Beckwith and Faheem Majeed  

The exhibition runs through July 24th.
