Montserrat Draws Italy

Saturday, November 5th, 2011

Montserrat students Peter Bergamo Jr. ’12, Mori Clark, Lana Wheeler, Lindsey Desrosiers, Illustration Instructor Kelly Murphy, Prof. Fred Lynch share their drawing from this summer’s study abroad trip to Viterbo, along with many others who participated in the program.

Each July, Montserrat hosts a four-week residential program affording art students and enthusiasts a unique opportunity to live and study in a country famous for its rich cultural legacy. This past summer, Montserrat traveled to Viterbo, Italy.

The drawings are from a Journalistic Drawing in Italy course, taught by Prof. Lynch, where students developed a series of images in a sketchbook journal, based on their experiences in Italy. Students closely observed, documented, and commented on their investigations of various aspects of Italian life and culture. Classes were held in the Accademia di Belli Arte in Viterbo, about 90 minutes north of Rome.

Faculty Meeting Italian-Style

Wednesday, July 20th, 2011

From the left clockwise: Darrell Matsumoto, Photo Prof. at Chester College; Montserrat College Faculty: Asst. Prof. Erin Dionne, Prof. Fred Lynch, Assoc. Prof. Caroline Bagenal, Academic Dean Laura Tonelli, Prof. Judy Brown, Illustration Instructor Kelly Murphy, and Alexandra Broches, photographer and wife of Darrell Matsumoto.

Montserrat faculty members assembled in Schenardi, a remarkable 19th century café, for their faculty meeting during this summer’s four-week residential cultural program in Viterbo, Italy.

The café’s room where they gathered in had a McDonalds “stand” built about five years ago, however, it only lasted a few months because the Italians complained of the puzza (bad smell).
