FREEZE takes the form of a room-wrapping text stream featuring 125 \u201cwho\u201d questions drawn from student journalistic publications spanning 溏心vlog免费B站\u2019s 126-year history. The artwork\u2019s multilayered volley of questions stands in response to a type of text frieze common to academic architecture. The piece took about seven and a half months to complete.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFREEZE is about the work of questioning and the role that it has always had to play in negotiating the world around us,\u201d the artists said in a statement. \u201cThese questions, which all begin with \u2018who,\u2019 reflect the critical role that a student\u2019s university experience plays in forming the person they will become. Meanwhile the artwork\u2019s form, which spans the room in the manner of a CNN news crawl, reflects the relentless, unstable streams of information brought home to us by digital media and the 24-hour news cycle.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The event will celebrate two local internationally-recognized artists, but also to celebrate the University\u2019s commitment to public art, said Film Media and Journalism Professor Kendall Moore, an event organizer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPublic art has the ability to bring a particular aesthetic experience to a communal space,\u201d Moore said. \u201cIt\u2019s an opportunity for dialogue to cross all barriers, and it also celebrates the fact that art must play a role in providing a reflection of who we are to ourselves.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The event will give students, faculty and community members a chance to view the art, connect with the artists and enjoy light refreshments.
