The University of Toronto at Mississauga is proudly home to the spectacular Art & Art History Program alongside Sheridan Collage. This program administers a unique and stimulating approach to the study of art and design, emphasizing studio practice as well as theoretical and art historical knowledge. Birthed in 1971, this 2011-year will mark the 40th anniversary of this diverse and accomplished program!

In order to commemorate this occasion, a collective group of artists and program graduates will be exhibiting a variety of mixed media works at the Blackwood Gallery. The exhibition will feature contemporary art in all media, including work generated by four decades of Art & Art History program alumni, precisely 40 years worth of fascinating artwork!  

Curated by Shannon Anderson the Viva Voce exhibition will feature works devised by Dorian FitzGerald, Alison S.M. Kobayashi, Richie Mehta & Stuart A. McIntyre, Johnson Ngo, Denyse Thomasos, Carolyn Tripp, Jessica Vallentin, Rhonda Weppler & Trevor Mahovsky, Andrew Wright, and Robert Zingone.
