His presence on campus was co-sponsored by the Art, Political Science, and International Studies departments, and the Frances Lehman Loeb Art Center. That Mellon-funded Vassar Artist-In-Residence program has grown into\u00a0the Creative Arts Across Disciplines Initiative as we know it. Due to this history with CAAD, we wanted to update our readers on Fein&#8217;s artistic endeavors since his residency.<\/p>\n<p>In Spring 2011, Fein&#8217;s installation\u00a0<em>White Flags<\/em>\u00a0went on display on the Chapel Lawn. Inspired by 9\/11, the piece is composed of the 192 flags of the United Nations all rendered\u00a0white. This year, the installation will be on display from April 1-30 as a <a href=\"http:\/\/tomtomfest.com\/2016\/03\/11\/aaron-fein-white-flags\/\" target=\"_blank\">part of the Tom Tom Founders Festival in Charlottesville, Virginia<\/a>. Additionally, Fein&#8217;s stitched paintings entitled\u00a0<em>Torus<\/em>\u00a0will appear at <a href=\"http:\/\/thebridgepai.org\/calendar\/2879\/\" target=\"_blank\">The Bridge Pai in Charlottesville<\/a> at the same time. We are very happy to hear of the work that this Vassar alumnus has continued to do since his time here. Follow the links above to learn more about Fein&#8217;s current work.
