The acclaimed Core Program of the MFAH awards residencies to emerging visual artists and art scholars. Each spring, the Core residents present an exhibition that showcases work created during that year’s residency. The 2011 Core Exhibition features work by artists-in-residence Nick Barbee, Lourdes Correa-Carlo, Fatima Haider, Steffani Jemison, Gabriel Martinez, Julie Ann Nagle, Kelly Sears, and Clarissa Tossin. The accompanying 2011 Core Yearbook includes essays by Core critical studies residents Massa Lemu, Melissa Ragain, Julie Thomson, and Wendy Vogel.
