Check out “Dream Design Build” in the Allen Library South Basement, a selection of drawings and watercolor renderings by students of the UW Department of Architecture from 1914-1947, demonstrating the transition in teaching from the Beaux-Arts model to Modernism. Many of the students went on to have influential careers, regionally and nationally. On view now through March 12, 2011.
ALSO, from Nov. 10 – Dec. 4, don’t miss “Exhibit-All or Nothing!”, a juried exhibit highlighting the best work coming from the diverse students in the School of Art, on display in the Jacob Lawrence Gallery. Students were told to submit exactly three artworks, and either all or none of their work was chosen. The Jacob Lawrence Gallery, located in the north corner of the Art building on the first floor, is always free to the public. Hours are 12-4, Wednesday – Saturday (closed Nov 25, 26, 27). For more information, please see http://art.washington.edu/63_Jacob-Lawrence-Gallery.
