MFA Reviews   

An intensive process where graduate students present in-progress or advanced work to a committee of faculty, visiting artists, and peers. These sessions foster deep critical dialogue, push conceptual development, and provide rigorous feedback tailored to each student’s evolving practice.

E.M.E.R.G.E Review Week

From November 17 – November 21, the Department of Art + Art History (A+AH) at FIU enters E.M.E.R.G.E., a full week dedicated to critique, exhibition, and artistic discourse.

Regular classes pause, shifting the focus to in-depth feedback, public presentations, and critical engagement. This is not a break—it’s an opportunity to push the work further, to take creative ownership, and to be fully immersed in the process.
