Exhibit will feature work of department folks

Magavern’s exhibit will beon the fourth floor of Moody Learning Center.
“Out in the Wild: a Texas Portfolio,” contains 24 images captured over the course of 20 years by Mark Magavern, lab technician in the photography program of the media communications department.

The exhibit is included in the monthlong Fotoseptiembre, an international photography festival celebrated in San Antonio dedicated to bringing a community of artists and enthusiasts together. The exhibit will remain on the fourth floor of Moody Learning Center during the fall semester.

Magavern’s work also will be featured in another Fotoseptiembre show, “Natural Visions,” an exhibit showcasing photographs of Earth’s landscapes, nature and wildlife through the eyes of seven college employees.
The exhibit includes the work of communication adjunct and lab technician Tricia Buchhorn, art Professor Rebecca Dietz, interpreter services manager Jo Hilton, photography Professor Edmund Lo, information systems specialists Elia Zepeda and media services photographer Leonard Ziegler.

The opening reception is 5 p.m.-8 p.m. Sept. 10 at the William R. Sinkin EcoCentro, 1802 N. Main Ave.

Journalism Instructor Irene Abrego, who curated Magavern’s solo show, said his exhibit came about because of difficulty in narrowing his entries in the “Natural Visions” exhibit.

Fotoseptiembre is an annual photography event during the month of September, featuring exhibits in galleries throughout San Antonio and the Texas Hill Country.
