Street Artist Posts Signs Across Country Reserving Vacant Lots for Trump Internment Camps. If this morning you happened across a sign warning of a Donald Trump-endorsed internment camp coming to a vacant lot near you, don't worry.
The sign, of which there were several zip-tied to fences in cities across the United States, was the work of a street artist named Plastic Jesus. As of Monday afternoon, the president has not actually signed an executive order requiring the construction of immigrant camps; he has, however, signed a new version of his controversial travel ban.

Try Newsweek for only $1.25 per week “What I’m trying to get across is the thought that with Trump’s recent policies we’re actually possibly not that far away from some kind of detention center purely for immigrants,” Plastic Jesus told the Boston Globe. The art of learning: Why art history might be the most important subject you could study today. We Americans tend to think of the British as infinitely more refined and cultivated than we are (despite the Brexit vote), but England almost eliminated art history as a field of study for high school students.
This would have cut it off at the knees and crippled it as a field of study altogether, because in the UK, high school students must choose their study subject when applying to university — if they’ve had no art history in high school, they are unlikely to choose it at uni. But after much protest from the liberal intellectual establishment, art history was “saved” and will stay on British curricula. If the cultured British nearly did away with art history, then what hope have we Americans? There has been much discussion of the advantages of humanities versus STEM subjects (science, technology, engineering and mathematics). The Best Digital Podcast Recorders on the Market.

Praxis Center for Aesthetic Studies – The Art World Demystified: Professional development tools for artists. Cate Blanchett rewrites art history in 13 short films. Found Furniture Pulverized into Conceptual Art. BERLIN — What’s most striking about Daniel Turner’s Particle Processed Cafeteria at König Galerie is the sheer immensity of it.
The focal point of the exhibition is a rust-brown powder staining the gallery’s floor. It’s a pretty sizable stain, to say the least, yet the sense of scale Turner’s exhibition commands is something of a paradox. Located in a former church, the Gothic immensity of König Galerie’s St. Agnes wing precedes Turner’s work and will remain there after the show is taken down.

How to Write An Effective Artist Statement. Like what you see, share it! It’s one of the most exciting and anticipated times in life when an artist finally goes pro. Having your work displayed in a gallery (or galleries) is the ultimate dream of most artists! However, it’s important that you write an artists’ statement if you really want to reach your ultimate level of success.

Introduction Today's context for higher education presents student affairs with many challenges. Among these are new technologies, changing student demographics, demands for greater accountability, concern about the increasing cost of higher education, and criticism of the moral and ethical climate on campuses. Institutions of higher learning are also influenced by social and political issues, including multiculturalism, personal responsibility, and equal opportunity. Our response to these challenges will shape our role in higher education. Contexts of Student Affairs Practice References. How the role of the curator has changed since the 1960s.
