The Annual Juried Student Show, organized by the Intermedia Gallery Group Co-Presidents Allison Shearer and Travis Howell, is a showcase of undergraduate student work from Eastern Michigan University's School of Art and Design and is curated by an outside juror. Students in the show have a chance for a monetary award, which will be announced during the reception of the exhibition. This year’s juror was Osman Khan.
Osman Khan is a Detroit based artist interested in constructing artifacts and experiences for social criticism and aesthetic expression. His work plays and subverts the materiality behind themes of identity, home/land, social and public space through participatory & performative installations and site-specific interventions. He is currently an Associate Professor at the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan. Khan’s work has been shown at Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art (MASS MoCA); the Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit (MoCAD); the Shanghai Biennale; the Zero1 Festival, San Jose; Witte de With Centre for Contemporary Art, Rotterdam; Ars Electronica Center, Linz; Socrates Sculpture Park, NYC; Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park, Grand Rapids (as part of ArtPrize 2014); Centro Internazionale per l'Arte Contemporanea, Rome; among others.
