The 2014 edition of southXeast: contemporary southeastern art is the fourth edition of the only regularly occurring curated exhibition in Florida that presents a selection of innovative art made by artists living in the southeast. Devoid of thematic ballast, the exhibition has the simple aim that our students and other audiences might benefit by seeing high quality artwork not commonly or ever seen in South Florida and/or Miami, a growing international center of contemporary art activity. The exhibition also seeks to present a diversity of approaches to contemporary art making while also representing specific studio art disciplines that are taught in FAU’s Department of Visual Arts and Art History.

Co-curated by W. Rod Faulds and Sybille Welter, the exhibition will conclude with a catalogue documenting the three exhibition spaces. Several public programs featuring artists who will be completing installation projects in the exhibition will occur throughout the run of the three exhibition dates/spaces.
