Object Lab turns our museum classroom inside out: it makes a public exhibition of the intimate art encounters that enrich learning and teaching across campus. Professors from a range of departments select works from storage. WCMA installs the eclectic mix in a space that supports sustained looking, offering a glimpse into what students are studying this semester.
