Eat healthy and be a Shorthorn!
More pictures from the Advanced Art class field trip on Friday to several Marfa galleries. The itinerary included stops at Greasewood Gallery, Rule Gallery, and the printmaking studio of Robert Arber. There, students were treated to a tour by local artist Valerie Arber, as she explained the printmaking techniques behind works by Donald Judd, Bruce Nauman, and Charline von Heyl. The trip ended with a stop at Frama, where the young artists cooled off with ice cream or iced drinks!
