THE FEED

"The Sky is Not Falling."
"Nature Preserve" /GAAH Press Club
On Sunday, October 1, The GAAH Press Club visited ArtPrize and each wrote a review of a work of art that they found particularly interesting. The following is Donny's review of an artwork.
I went to go see "The Sky is Not Falling" in the Women's City Club. The artist is Mark Rumsey. The paper ceiling was made out of paper which were shaped like bows. The artist put strings [on them] so the paper could hang from the ceiling. The paper-shaped-like-bows were little but there were tons and they covered the ceiling. Also, I thought the artist took his time because it looked very difficult, and because most artists are creative.
I also went to the UICA museum and saw a "piece of art" that was tubes and it had plants floating [in water]. I did not think it was art because it looked simple and it did not inspire me (it's my own opinion). Also, it was kind of wierd. The name was "Nature Preserve," and the artist is Michele Brody.
The GAAH Press Club, a program of the Cook Arts Center, provides youth in the Grandville Avenue neighborhood with the opportunity to find, develop and share their creative voices. Being a member of the Press Club not only empowers youth by helping them develop their sense of self but also encourages them to become creative problem solvers, enhance communication skills and increase their chances of continuing on to higher education. Through the Press Club, neighborhood youth can also raise awareness about local events and happenings that are important to members of the local community.
