Description:

Join the Block Museum Student Associates in The Living Room for a close look at Ken Fandell's The Sky Above My Home (10/7/2002–6/14/2003, Chicago, Illinois) (2003). Composed from hundreds of photographs taken over nine months, the work compresses time and space into a single, swirling image of the sky above the artist’s home. The Living Room is a drop-in space at The Block Museum that invites students and other visitors to gather, reflect, and connect with one artwork in the museum’s collection, rotating each month.

Block Museum Student Associates (BMSAs) are Northwestern undergraduates representing interdisciplinary fields of study from across the university. In the galleries, BMSAs extend welcome to our exhibitions and permanent collection and engage visitors in conversations about artworks that spark their curiosity.

Participation level – medium, participants are encouraged to respectfully share their own perspectives, thoughts, and questions throughout the Art Talk.   

 

Programs are open to all, on a first-come first-served basis. RSVPs not required, but appreciated.
