Baznik's photographs on display at University of Arizona Museum of Art
In exhibit "Pavement Memoirs" with panoramic view of Play House Square
Richard Baznik has more to celebrate than his 40-year milestone on the Case Western Reserve University campus. Often seen around campus with his camera in hand, recently the photographer had his images exhibited as part of a thesis project, "Pavement Memoirs," by Gary Rozanc at the University of Arizona's Museum of Art.
The project with Baznik's photographs was one of 14 installations by 14 MFA candidates in the thesis show. It ended May 18.
"This was my first museum exhibition," said Baznik, who is currently writing the campus history as director of the Institute for the Study of the University in Society. Since 2004, he has run the "Campus Markings" contest in which he uses his close-up photos of Case Western Reserve buildings to encourage people to explore the campus environment.
