In the Fall of 2024, UNMAM issued an open call for students to create works on paper (drawing, prints, photographs) in response to Helen Frankenthaler’s prints for the Push & Pull: The Prints of Helen Frankenthaler and Her Contemporaries exhibition. Interested applicants were invited to respond to Frankenthaler’s use of color, philosophy, technique, or materials. 

Three students were selected: Adrian Ricca Lucci (BFA student in painting and drawing), Brianna Tadeo (third-year MFA student in photography), and Yoma Wilson (second-year MFA student in printmaking).
