The Great Art Giveaway

Ruth Stanford's Installation Sculpture class stages a little public intervention in the spirit of "Free Because It's Yours". Instead of hitting the dumpster abandoned art from GSU lockers finds new homes.  As Ruth says "it's a great example of you never know what's going to happen".

More Strings

Participating in the DIY art Tuesdays creates more than art, - it creates community. I loved the string project in Cage Space. It was challenging to define an area of the work and become a part of it, and eventually you begin to depend on the work and input from others to enhance your own participation. Very stimulating and thought provoking. I also enjoyed learning to knit at the GSU Gallery. This is something I would never have thought of. But it just goes to show that you never know what you really enjoy unless you try. On the other hand, though I really wanted to take part in the wax carving / etching for the cast piece, - I found that the tools were hard to manipulate and the situation of the work (on its side and low to the ground) made it hard to really enjoy. As a whole, the DIY is well worth participating for everyone and if you can take part, you should.
