The 50th Annual University of California, Berkeley Master of Fine Arts Graduate Exhibition
May 14–June 20, 2021
Every year since 1970, BAMPFA and UC Berkeley’s Department of Art Practice have collaborated to present an exhibition of works by Berkeley Master of Fine Arts graduates. The 2020 exhibition, which would have marked the fiftieth anniversary of this historic partnership, was postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic. A year later, with our galleries reopening to the public at last, we celebrate by showcasing the exceptional work of Brian Bartz, Xandra Ibarra, Leena Joshi, Brontez Purnell, Ghazal Rahimi, and Jessica Robbins.
