Special shoutout to @divsacappella for performing and to all of the student museum guides. 📸: @skylar0324 @jvliasmith Today we say goodbye to Hermes at Rest (just for the winter 😉). Special thanks to the MHC greenhouse staff for lending a helping hand! This week in #teachingwithart our Chuck Close “Self-Portrait Screenprint” (2007) made an appearance for Professor Mara Sabariego and Professor Ken Colodner’s Neuroscience classes. Their lab, titled “An Exploration of Art and the Brain,” deconstructs how we make sense of visual information. By covering up the screen print and revealing small squares one at a time, students tried to make sense of the larger picture...which was then fully revealed to surprised gasps!
