Art & Design Professor Joan Giroux will give her lecture on Monday.
She is an interdisciplinary artist, activist, and educator. Ranging from discrete handmade objects, digital photomontage, kinetic sculpture and installation to full-scale theatrical productions and community interventions, her work reflects strong interests in language, history, game theory, and social conditioning.
On Monday, Professor Giroux will present some of her current individual and collaborative work within the context of the 2008/09 Critical Encounters: Human/Nature focus. In particular, Giroux will consider questions addressing "the degree to which individual values, qualities, and desires are either naturally imbued or socially nurtured," and the roles art and the making of art can play in the process of identifying and constructing values.
For Monday, think about the following question: How does art and the making of art identify and construct values in your life? What about the lives of others? Of those you've never met?
