The ArtBar at UNLV is self-serve.
Instead of mixing yourself a cocktail, you make your own artwork. The block semi-circle in the lobby of the Barrick Musuem is stocked with supplies and a prompt inspired by a current exhibit.
In conjunction with a powerful series of photos now on display – Edward Burtynsky: Oil – the ArtBar invited visitors to “reflect on process and change.”
There were charcoals, pastels, pencils, crayons, and cardstock in a neutral palette of tans and grays, black and white. I decided to take a few minutes to put pastels against a page and see what would come out. So I pulled up a stool, contemplated change and erosion, and made mountains.
Marjorie Barrick Museum at University of Nevada, Las Vegas is free (optional $5 donation), and the ArtBar is in the lobby and open to anyone. There is metered parking in the lot just outside the museum.
What a cool concept! I love your mountains. Perfect example of process and change, in slow motion.
Yeah, I thought the ArtBar was a great idea too!
I love what you came up with! And that you showed us this cool idea. If I get that way, it will be on my list.
Yes, definitely keep it on the list! :)
That is such a cool idea! I love how your mountains turned out.
Thank you!
