SIUE MFA Thesis Exhibition

Christine A. Holtz is a multi-media artist graduating in May with her
M.F.A. in textiles from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville.
She received her B.F.A. from Indiana University of Pennsylvania in
December of 2003 with a concentration in both painting and textiles.

Christine A. Holtz Productions is a thesis exhibition of several
works created since the fall of 2004. Christine's work emphasizes the
absurdity of contemporary American consumer habits through the use of
sculpture, video, photographs and performance. Employing a variety of
materials and methods, Christine creates work that pushes her
physical, emotional, and mental limits to illustrate truths of
consumerism and its negative repercussions. This exhibition will
include multiple productions along with a live performance by Holtz
and Dr. Ivy Cooper that will take place during the opening of the
show on Friday April 13th from 7-9pm.
