Artwork of UF professor Richard Heipp will be featured in an upcoming exhibition at the Florida Holocaust Museum, 55 Fifth Street South in St. Petersburg.

Admission to reception is free to members and $9 for non-members. RSVPs required by calling (727) 820-0100 ext. 271
Heipp, a descendant of German immigrants and a professor of art at the University of Florida says that his provocative "Germanic Guilt" series "addresses autobiographical concerns dealing with [his] cultural heritage." Heipp has taught painting at UF for almost 30 years, where he's currently the College of Fine Arts Interim Director. His public art projects synthesize digital and analogue processes, and he's been commissioned to complete eighteen site-specific public art projects that have involved media including traditional painting, photography, various lighting elements and relief sculpture. Heipp's work has also been featured in well over one hundred group exhibitions. His website is RichardHeipp.com |
