Art Cart: Suspend a Sculpture!
October 6, 2022 | 10:00 am–12:00 pm
Have you ever heard the word suspended? Suspend means to hang something (like a light or a fan from the ceiling). Artist Eva Hesse liked to think outside the box and she came up with the idea to suspend a sculpture. She called the work Vertiginous Detour. At this week’s Art Cart, young artists will be able to see her sculpture and then suspend their own works of art.
Find the Art Cart on the Third Level to pick up your suspension materials.
Do this at home! Build and suspend your own sculpture inspired by Eva Hesse. Instructions here.
