December Teen Art Exhibit -- nach rel
November 24, 2008 By Robyn Lax
This is the first of a series of exhibits of art works created and curated by East Brunswick teens. Look down this page to get a preview and then stop by the Teen Space to view the exhibit first hand.
This exhibit, “Nach´rel,” runs through the end of January.
Message from the curator:
I chose the theme natural because most of the world we live in is organic. The words origin and organic are closely related and this idea fascinates me.
The art works in this exhibit have many ways of interpreting this subject. Alia’s and Kristina’s drawings both look real but one looks rugged while the other is more refined and idealistic. Karolina’s, on the other hand, is more stylized.
