What is a juried show? A juried show is an art competition in which participants' work is evaluated and selected by a panel or judge (a juror). Jurors are typically experienced artists, curators, and/or art professionals. Juried art shows can be highly competitive and often offer rewards/prizes. The Union is hosting a juried show to showcase and recognize the great artistic talent we have on campus!

About our Juror: Analise Minjarez (1990) is an interdisciplinary artist and arts educator from El Paso, TX. Her work explores the transformation, consumption, repurposing, and healing qualities of material in her creative practice. Within the perspective as a Texas/Mexico fronteriza, she responds to material through installation, sculpture, drawing, experimental photography, and video. Through her interdisciplinary studio, Minjarez seeks out the possibilities and limits of her wonder with nature.

Minjarez received her B.F.A. in Fibers from the University of North Texas in 2013. She recently received her M.F. A. from Southern Methodist University in Dallas, TX in 2022. Minjarez has taught classes at the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, the Latino Cultural Center, Oak Cliff Cultural Center, Oil and Cotton, SAY Sí, and the Southwest School of Arts. Most recently, Minjarez has exhibited work at the Nasher Sculpture Museum in Dallas, TX as part of the 2020 Nasher Windows Series and as the 2022 Spring Resident at Sweet Pass Sculpture Studio in Dallas, TX. She is currently the Cultural Programs Coordinator for the City of Dallas at the Bath House Cultural Center.
