And so… Claudia Fieo: Selected Works (1986-2026) highlights the arc of the artist’s visual investigations over the past four decades as she returns again and again to pondering the ineffable mysteries intrinsic to living a life: the inevitability of time passing; the capriciousness of memory; and the tensions that exist in relationships-with one’s self, with others, and with the natural world & built environment.

In honor of Professor Claudia Fieo’s retirement after 34 years of distinguished teaching in printmaking, graphic design, and foundations, Hand-drawn: Alumni Works from Wheaton College’s Collections celebrates the enduring creativity of her students. This exhibition features 25 years of acquisitions from the Friends of Art Student Art Collection, an initiative spearheaded by Professor Fieo and funded by the Friends of Art alumni organization to purchase exceptional work each year from the Senior Visual Art Exhibition.

Spanning prints, drawings, animation, and sculpture, the featured works are drawn from the Student Art Collection, the Wheaton College Permanent Collection, and the Marion B. Gebbie Archives & Special Collections. More than a historical archive, this collection stands as a testament to exceptional student achievement and serves as a vital, aspirational teaching tool for future Wheaton artists.
