Greensboro College Exhibition of Paintings, “Vision and Intuition,” Opens Jan. 17

GREENSBORO, N.C. – Greensboro College presents “Vision and Intuition,” an exhibition of paintings by the husband-and-wife team of Charlotte and Erik Ström, Jan. 17 through Feb. 23.

An opening reception will be held 6-8 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 17, in the Anne Rudd Galyon and Irene Cullis Galleries in Cowan Humanities Building on campus. Regular exhibition hours are 9 a.m.-5 p.m. weekdays. Both the reception and the exhibition are free, and the public is invited.

The Ströms incorporate elements of abstraction and design into representational environments in order to further enhance the emotional and psychological impact of the subject matter. Some of their paintings were painted by one or the other, while some are collaborations.

Greensboro College’s Department of Art offers the B.A. or B.S. in Art and the B.A. in Art Education.

The program, with individual attention to students, combines classic art principles with the liberal-arts foundations of diverse branches of inquiry, including both science and the humanities, so that students can incorporate as much of the world as possible into their own art-making.

For more information about Greensboro College’s art program, contact department chair Jim Langer at 336-272-7102, ext. 5361, or email langerj@greensboro.edu

Greensboro College provides a liberal arts education grounded in the traditions of the United Methodist Church and fosters the intellectual, social, and, spiritual development of all students while supporting their individual needs.

Founded in 1838 and located in downtown Greensboro, the college enrolls about 1,000 students from 29 states and territories, the District of Columbia, and seven foreign countries in its undergraduate liberal-arts program and four master’s degree programs. In addition to rigorous academics and a well-supported Honors program, the school features an 18-sport NCAA Division III athletic program and dozens of service and recreational opportunities.

“I loved the GC Honors program and Greensboro College. I felt safe and a sense of genuine belonging at the college. I worked closely with my thesis advisor and professors who helped inspire me to define my path and passion of interest. That path has led me to my doctoral studies in Engineering Mechanics.”
