1990s |
| Paul Fabozzi MFA'93 has two solo exhibitions running concurrently this month in Philadelphia. An exhibition of paintings and works on paper will be shown at Gallery Siano, November 3-25, and an installation of sculpture, artist books and large drawings will be on view at Carbon 14 Gallery, November 3-December.

Scott Ginder MArch'97 |
| Daniel Heyman MFA'91 will show his work in the exhibit "Quoi que nous soyons" at 55 Mercer Gallery in New York, October 31-November 5; a reception will be held on November 4. This body of work represents his response to the continuing presence of U.S. troops in Iraq and the human rights abuses at Abu Ghraib. Heyman traveled to Amman, Jordan and Istanbul, Turkey this year as part of a team pursuing a class action suit on behalf of these prisoners. The installation at The Archive Space at Crane Arts in Philadelphia this September, "Clean Up America," was part of his first artistic response to the war in Iraq. |
| Denise Juron-Borgese MArch'97 was promoted to associate principal with Group Goetz Architects in Washington, DC, where she is project director and manager for the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency Headquarters, District Offices and Field Offices. She resides in DC with her husband Antonino and their one-year old son, Francesco Robert. |
| Kathryn McFadden MFA'97 exhibited paintings at Cumberland County Community College last month. Life-size, full-length portaits were inspired after spending time on the Laramie River Dude Ranch in Jelm, Wyoming. Most of the wranglers were women, in a traditionally male occupation, sparking a series of new viewpoints of 21st Century cowgirls. |
