Art Gallery

This past week the artists from the Stritch gallery came to talk to my art history class. I find it very interesting to hear artists talk about their work, their thought process, and what got them started. When I first visited the gallery, the 911 calls were the most fascinating to me. I hated listening to them but I couldn't get myself to walk away. When we met the artists, the visual words became more interesting because of the artists story behind it. She often looked at comment boards to see what people would say when they didn't have to attach their name to it. That was what the project was really about, that you should be able to take responsibility for what you say. It makes you realize how much impact words really have. This exhibit was very thought provoking, which is what art should be.
