"Tin* show came about through a long process " said Jane Maitland-Ghoison, assot.into arts and administration professor and coordinator of Mar tin Luther King Jr. ixdebratinn events Initially we wanted to put out some kind of chal lenge campus-wide for work for a show." Maitland Gholson sjiuI But she said the relatively small spu< « in the gallery and the unknown amount of work such a challenge would generate combined to bo prohibitive, Maitland-Ghoison said. Then the idea of exhibiting the relatively new area of computer generated art was suggested. “We have the computer graphics area," Maitland Ghoison said. “People ore really interested in computing and are thinking of computing as an art form. Out on the internet, a challenge has gone out for work where people can respond to the notion of building bridges and burning bridges, particu larly in relation to the legacy of Martin Luther King." she said. I.«on Johnson, an assistant professor in fine and applied arts and a native of South Afrna. organized this event. Events in South Africa over the last cou ple of years, with the fall of Apartheid, is where the notion of Burning Bridges sturted.
