BMCC’s Shirley Fiterman Art Center Fall Exhibition to Feature Artists Courtney McClellan and Victoria Dugger

Borough of Manhattan Community College's Shirley Fiterman Art Center will present two concurrent exhibitions from September 10 to December 20, 2025: Courtney McClellan: Simulations and Victoria Dugger: Late Bloomer. McClellan's installation features photographs of mock courtrooms at law schools across the American South, exploring performance and the law through what she calls 'applied fiction.' Dugger's mixed-media works, including painting and sculpture, use playful yet grotesque imagery to interrogate growth, identity, and embodiment as a Black, disabled woman. Both artists, who live and work in Georgia, will participate in an opening discussion and reception on September 10.

Courtney McClellan's exhibition "Simulations" at the Shirley Fiterman Art Center in Lower Manhattan features deadpan photographs of empty mock courtrooms at universities across the American South, including a haunting simulation of the Supreme Court's chambers at Liberty University, an evangelical Southern Baptist college in Virginia. The show, which includes images taken over six years, is installed with blue borders and wainscoting that blur the line between architecture and image, placing viewers in the position of judge and jury while highlighting the theatricality of these spaces.

SADA faculty members showcase art at museum

Liberty University's semi-annual Faculty Art Exhibition opened on September 4 and runs through October 13, 2025, at the Liberty University Art Museum in Green Hall. The show features a diverse range of work by faculty members of the Department of Studio & Digital Arts (SADA), including paintings, pottery, sculptures, jewelry, illustrative projects, video game renderings, and concept art created with design software. The gallery was donated by Barbara Engstrom in February 2022 to display faith-based art, and her personal collection is also on view. Chair Todd Smith oversees the museum and emphasized that the exhibition models professional practice for students.
