Art Tells a Story

This semester we will explore the theme of Art Tells a Story. Students will be learning about the ways that art and visual images have been used to describe and document events and changes as they occurred. The story of a revolution, the story of the creation of a artwork large enough to cover a canyon, and the story of the changes in an artist's life, are among some of the fascinating images that will be shown. A wide variety of both two- and three-dimensional art-making techniques will be explored. (website: www.bsu.edu/art/)
