Beschreibung des Programms

Studio Angelico is Siena Heights University’s nationally accredited art department, offering degrees in Graphic Design, Art History, and Fine Arts. As part of these degrees, you can explore art media such as animation, ceramics, drawing, graphic design, metalsmithing, painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, video editing, and web design. In addition, opportunities are available for you to combine your art degree with various other majors, minors, and certifications in areas such as business, psychology, chemistry, museum studies, and teacher education, which will help you prepare for careers in such fields as advertising, art therapy, art conservation, museum work, and art education.

At Studio Angelico, you will enjoy small class sizes, personalized attention, up-to-date facilities, and a supportive and diverse community of learners that will foster your growth as an artist. Our Visiting Artists Program connects you with experts from around the world; the Klemm Gallery in Studio Angelico not only features the work of our visiting artists but provides a professional venue for our BFA majors’ senior projects. Educational travel opportunities are also available.

We invite you to meet our faculty, tour our facilities, and present a portfolio of your artwork for possible scholarships.

The program’s primary goal is to develop the visual artist. Students are encouraged to take risks, speculate, explore, research, create and pursue artworks of quality. Students are asked to deal with materials and ideas, to explore past perceptions of the world of art and their interior and exterior worlds of imagination and values. These expectations call for a commitment to study, a disciplined approach to work, and a willingness to integrate personal and cultural identities in their artwork.

The Klemm Gallery provides a venue for a broad range of art exhibitions supporting the University’s mission and reflecting the concerns and interests of the faculty and students in the Art program.

The gallery is named after Sister Jeannine Klemm, former chair of the Art program.

Each fall semester the gallery schedules three month-long solo or group exhibitions.
