UofL professor and artist James Grubolas The Friday (and Thursday) Sessions opened on Friday at the Cressman Center for Visual Arts. It features Grubolas work from his weekly practice of drawing sessions from live nude models on Thursdays and a ballet studio on Fridays.
This show is very important obviously it represent the last three and a half, four years of my life, in terms of artistic work, Grubola said about Sessions, which shows a return to his first love of figure drawing.
Grubola joined the Department of Fine Arts at the UofL in 1975 and quickly established the advanced drawing program. While his time as a professor at UofLs Hite Art Institute is soon coming to an end, he plans to continue working until he physically cant.
Print artist Jackson Taylor said Grubolas work demonstrates his lineage as a formal developer in the art world.
His knowledge and tone have helped fertilize several draftsman across the Midwest, said Taylor, 24.
