  • 2. Why is Art Scary?
    2022/04/30

    El and Christine reflect on their experiences in art museums and galleries and wonder why some of us find art so intimidating. Is art scary? Or is it just unfamiliar?

    Check out "The Icebergs" by Frederic Edward Church at the Dallas Museum of Art : https://collections.dma.org/artwork/4171219 

    Correction! The quote "we read to know that we are not alone" was not, in fact, said by Mark Twain. Rather, it is a line from William Nicholson's play "Shadowlands," spoken by the character C.S. Lewis!
