More than 40 works by internationally acclaimed artist and CSUS alumnus
Wayne Thiebaud will be on display this spring at the new University Library
Gallery. The Gallery was built with the help of $50,000 donated through
the University Fund. The exhibition opens April 4, 2003, during the University’s
11th annual Festival of the Arts, and extends through July 25.
- Thiebaud has actually received three degrees from CSUS: a bachelor’s degree in art in 1951, a master’s degree in art in 1953, and an honorary Ph.D. in fine arts in 1998.
- The recipient of numerous awards and honors, Thiebaud received the National Medal of Arts Presidential Award in 1994. The works in the exhibition will represent a survey from virtually the entire length of Thiebaud’s career, the 1950s to 2003.
