Prince is an artist, educator and art evangelist. His mediums are printmaking, drawing and sculpture. Prince is a native of New Orleans and the Crescent City's rich tradition of art, music and religion pulsate through his work. He uses the language of the line in a rhythmic and powerful way.

He uses a rich, visual vocabulary of signs and symbols to tell stories that express his unique vision founded in hope, faith and creativity.</p><p>This exhibition is co-sponsored by the Beck Cultural Exchange Center and his campus visit is supported by the Office of the Vice Chancellor for Diversity and Engagement, the UTK Africana Studies Program, and the UT School of Art.</p> Through the Trees - an exhibition by Tom Riesing <p><strong>October 0 - 00, 0000</strong></p></p><p><i>Through the Trees</i>, presents my recent paintings and drawings produced since 0000. The images are thematic and site specific generated from extensive observations and time spent exploring East Tennessee, the Delaware Valley, the Oregon Coast, and Lower Silesia in Poland among others. I respond to the elegance of the trees, and to the light and space that exists between and beyond the persistent verticality of the trees. - Tom Riesing</p> SHINY - Drawings by David Wilson <p><strong> November 0 - 00, 0000 </strong></p></p><p><i>Shiny</i>, featured over 00 drawings of imitation silver leaf on translucent vellum. </p></p><p>David Wilson began his academic career at the UT School of Art in 0000.

As a teenager, his work caught the eye of Lloyd Branson and became his apprentice. The opportunity catapulted Delaney towards New York City during the Harlem Renaissance where he cultivated a circle of friends, including poet laureate Countee Cullen, artist Georgia O'Keeffe, and writer James Baldwin. In 0000, Delaney left New York for Paris, France, as Europe had begun attracting African-American artists and writers. His works began to shift from figurative compositions to abstract expressionists of color and light.</p></p><p>The exhibition featured 00 works, including 0 oil on canvas paintings, abstract watercolors, pastel portraits, and 0 self-portraits, that range across various stages of Delaney's life.
