After-hours at the IU Art Museum: "The Artist as Truth-teller"Tuesday, April 15, 2008 * 6-8 p.m. * IU Art Museum * Dessert Served * SIGN-UP REQUIRED
Over the centuries artists have used their art to meet the challenges of
war, race, class, and indifference. In what ways can art help us see our
world more clearly, feel it more deeply, move us to reflection, change, or
action? What risks have artists faced in telling us the truth? Join us
for a special discussion program at the IU Art Museum with education
curator Ed Maxedon that will focus on artworks from the
Western collection and challenge you to detect how, why, and with what
consequences some artists have pushed us to see the world and ourselves
differently.
