"Outside the Frame: Teaching Art in a World of Porous Boundaries"
Saturday, May 26 at 3pm in Zilkha Gallery
As in other academic disciplines, the boundaries of art have expanded and, increasingly, art is not sharply defined by medium as it once was. How has the evolution of art itself influenced the teaching of art in an undergraduate program such as Wesleyan's? How does a professor's own work influence his/her teaching? How do they prepare their students for life in the art world? These and other questions will be addressed in this seminar, moderated by Zilkha's Curator of Exhibitions Nina Felshin. Panelists include Sidney Russell '07, David Schorr and Kate Ten Eyck.

Thanks to the Office of Academic Affairs and the Office of the Dean of Arts and Humanities for their partial support of The Faculty Show.  Very special thanks to William McCarthy for his assistance with all aspects of the exhibition and its installation.  Many thanks also to Phil Dean, John Elmore, Ryan Lee, Camille Parente, Rhonda York, and David Boule, Bruce Strickland and David Strickland of Wesleyan's Scientific Support Services.
