Hilliard University Art Museum will launch Meet the Makers today, a video series that invites visitors to use smart devices to access additional content for an exhibit of 麻豆夜市 art faculty.
The exhibit features the work of faculty in the visual arts, performing arts, architecture and design. The Meet the Makers video series is the museum鈥檚 first educational initiative to tap the capabilities of smart devices.
鈥淢eet the Makers brings the artist and his or her studio into the gallery so that viewers can learn about how the painting, sculpture, video or musical work they are admiring was made. By approaching art through the maker鈥檚 perspective, we hope to engage more of our community through their love of tools, materials and the act of making things,鈥 said LouAnne Greenwald, director of the museum.
The video series offers interviews with John Gargano, ceramist; Jamie Baldridge, new media artist; Catherine Roche-Wallace, musician; Chryl Savoy and John Hathorn, artists; and Michael McClure, Ursula Emery McClure and Sarah Young, architects.
The museum has set up unique URLs for each video for the public to access while they visit the exhibition. The links are also available outside of our galleries for the public to enjoy in the comfort of their home or in the classroom. The project was made possible through the support of the Lafayette Convention and Visitors Commission Enterprise Fund.
