Carolina, was recently named the Western Carolinians new Arts and Entertainment Editor, A past editor for the Delta Zeta - sororitys Lamp Magazine, she was an intern for the Western Carolinian over the summer and made an impact on the editorial board. Im excited that Shelby Harrell accepted our invitation to join our staff as Arts and Entertainment Editor, said Editor-in-Chief Justin Caudell. Shelby was an asset to our staff this summer in many areas, but in particular, she created article concepts for our Arts and Entertainment section and carried the section while we were without an editor. Through -superb copy editing and writing, she showed both energy and drive, which is what the Western Carolinian looks for in its editors. , : Harrell, who is a section leader for the Pride of the Mountains Marching, : Band, has a rich background in the. aris and entertainment arena. She rarely, if ever, misses a play on Shelby Harrell campus and enjoys reading novels and watching movies every chance she peisy ay e Tam very pleased to be named Afts and Entertainment Editor because | love to write, particularly WESTERN CAROLINIAN about the arts, said Harrell. Vm also excited to be able to incorporate my fondness, of). theater into my work. L went to. all of WCUs theater productions, _ even alone sometimes, just to be Harrell Named Arts and Entertainment Editor entertained. Now | am able to enjoy the play, and write about it-which for me, is th best of both, worlds. Previewing what she has in store for the Arts and Entertainment section, Harrell said, I hope to oto by Justin Caudell incorporate more works of WCUs Music Department, including ensembles, concerts, recitals and of course the marching band into the Arts and Entertainment section. VCU Student Wins Prize in International Sculpture Exhibit By Sarah Kucharski Contributing Writer Western Carolina University graduate student Tracy Bochnak Kirchmann recently __ received an honorable mention in the 2009 Student = Achievement in . Contemporary Sculpture competition from the International Sculpture Center. The competition featured 441 students from more than 176 college and university sculpture programs in North America and abroad. The award demonstrates that the WCU sculpture program prepares students to enter the art world as professionals at the highest level. nationally and internationally, said Marya Roland, professor of art at WCU. Students in the School of Art and Design understand the broadest vision of art today and can move successfully in their field, Kirchmann calls her work Existential Crisis an extension. of her conceptual use of glass to magnify aspects of human experience and culture that she finds interesting. The piece pairs incongruous objects sex toys and bird paperweights in a medium that unites them. These objects are made from the same process and from the same material. Visually, they are complementary, Kirchmann. said. The conflict, in the juxtaposition of these objects, occurs only in the mind. In shape, color and material the pieces overall design evokes a place of worship, she added. The combination of these two glass objects creates a visually stunning spectacle, which-upon first glance seems natural, Kirchmann said. Upon further investigation, most viewers laugh, while others are repulsed. Regardless of peoples individual opinions, it undeniably ignites conversation. In conjunction with the award, Tracy Bochnak Kirchmann Kirchmanns work will be featured in the Grounds for Sculptures Fall/Winter Exhibition catalogue and Sculpture magazines October issue. The magazine is prominent and read by all art professionals, so the exposure for the WCU School of Art and Design is invaluable, Roland said. In. addition to the honorable mention award, Kirchmann recently became the first glass artist to set up shop at Jackson Countys Green Energy Park in Dillsboro. The park. offers environmental protection, educational opportunities and increased economic development to the community through the utilization of landfill gas and other clean, renewable energy resources. At the once-abandoned landfill site, the park is developing a series of artisan studios for blacksmithing, glass blowing, pottery, greenhouse space, a biodiesel refinery, classroom and conference space, a caf and a retail gallery. Im just very excited to be a part ofthis, Kirchmann said. Its going to be a tremendous resource for the community. Kirchmann came to Westrn Carolina having heard about the Green Energy Park and_ its Photo by Ashley T. Evans & opportunities for artists. She began working at the park as a graduate assistant, and hopes to do her thesis there. Her knowledge about glass working has been instrumental in putting together the glass studio at the park, said park director Timm Muth, Kirchmann will be part of the Green Energy Parks Art in the Park event held Sept. 19, which will unveil the glass studio.
