Student Guide Tour: What Moves You?, with Alexis Boo
Tour
Alexis Boo ’22 will explore instances of movement in art and how movement makes meaning. She will look at No. 2 (1950), a painting that Jackson Pollock made in Long Island, New York, with his so-called drip technique; Light Prop for an Electric Stage [Light-Space Modulator], a kinetic sculpture designed by László Moholy-Nagy at the Bauhaus in Dessau, Germany, in 1930; and an early eighth-century sculpture of the seated Buddha, which was removed from cave temples in Tianlongshan, China.
