As both a graduate and staff member of the University of St. Thomas, John Jarpe has been one of the most constant supporters of art on campus. In his own work, he has gone through a slow evolution from huge, almost 3-dimensional pieces in a variety of unexpected media, to more flowing contained works, which show an introspective subtlety. This exhibit showcases his total mature work, from the twisting, politically-tinged statements such as those on display in Brady Education Center, to his recent works, which show a modulation of form and material, as well as an acknowledgement of a firmly- grounded adulthood.
