A Matter of Time Tour & Workshop

The exhibition, A Matter of Time, draws from the gallery’s permanent collection and includes artworks from across periods, art historical movements, and mediums that challenge concepts of the past, present, and future.  A Matter of Time positions time as relational and as a measure of change.  During the tour, students will hear about a variety of worldviews that reflect on ideas of memory, resurgence, and futurisms.

 

Workshop:

Using paper and found objects, student will be inspired to create a sculptural three-dimensional miniature museum of memories.  While engaging in this workshop, students will reflect on the concept of time as well as moments from their own personal timeline.
