September 8 – December 20, 2017
Object Study is a hybrid gallery-classroom – a place where students can have close and repeated encounters with artworks from Flaten Art Museum’s collection to deepen their understanding of the subjects covered in classes across the curriculum. In collaboration with museum staff, six faculty members from across academic divisions selected works of art that employ, convey, or investigate key course concepts. The works of art will be installed in the Center for Art and Dance’s Object Study gallery for the full semester, offering students and faculty extended access to the objects.
Participating faculty members:
Mary Cisar
Matt Rohn
John Saurer
Nancy Thompson
Christopher Tradowsky
Ka Wong
