| Moritz Kellerman and Bill
Moll, two instructors of art at Oakton Community College, approach their
work in different ways, the result of a generation gap spanning two decades.
While both earned master’s degrees from the School of the Art Institute
of Chicago, Moll graduated in the early 1970s, a product of the Chicago
Imagists who retained a figurative mode through expressionism and pop art.
Kellerman, however, emerged from SAIC in the late 1980s, and was influenced
by abstraction and minimalism. The work of these artists reflects the evolution
of trends at the school during these periods, prior to the ascendancy of
conceptualism and installation art. |
