Four UAlbany graduate students are among 63 promising art students whose work is on display at the 2004 Best of SUNY Student Art Exhibition through September 24 at State University Plaza in Albany.

Ingrid Ludt, Sergio Sericolo, Mark Tiernan, and Val Tran are all enrolled in UAlbany�s master of fine arts program.

State University of New York Chancellor Robert King praised the work of the students for its �considerable power and mastery. Through it, we can see the energy and vitality of our students. This year�s art exhibitions at State University Plaza have allowed us to bring the work of our many talented students to a wider audience.�
