The Florida A&M University Foster-Tanner Fine Arts Gallery invites you to experience our new art exhibition, "Marilyn Proctor-Givens: Exploration of a Process." This exhibition will feature a collection of works by celebrated artist and art educator Marilyn Proctor-Givens. Proctor-Givens’ featured artwork spans four decades and showcases her exploration of media and processes, including graphic design, photography, glass, wood, fabric, leather, filament, and ceramics. Her ceramic forms use both traditional and Raku firing techniques, bringing together traditional ceramic forms like vessels and platters and her trademark sculptural forms, including distinctive haloed masks and jigsaw puzzle pieces embossed forms. Many of Proctor-Givens’ works draw upon family, culture, religion, and travel. Through her hand, many techniques, materials, and processes are presented, revealing the connections made with people, places and things.
