The Valdosta National group exhibition at the Dedo Maranville Gallery in the Fine Arts building did a wonderful job showing the different styles of artists’ works with different mediums and styles used throughout each piece. Not only was I surprised by the variety and distinctions of artworks displayed on the walls of the gallery but there were even sculptures built in such a unique way, giving the viewer more than one way to look at the artists’ piece. The works Square Sun by Nathan Taves and The Garden by Bryce Speed caught my attention the most when looking through the exhibition. It brought up an issue I find amongst many artworks in exhibitions, how judges go about deciding which artwork gets awarded and if there is an appropriate judging criterion they follow in order to make their judgment. In this paper, I will address the issue of judgment, placement and which works I found to be successful and not so successful.
