Announcing the Dodd Courtyard Renovation

The Lamar Dodd School of Art is excited to announce the opening of the Art Garden for the fall 2018 semester. In its new form the courtyard will serve the entire Dodd community by providing outdoor classroom and exhibition space, as well as a site for various events including the  annual awards reception and Dodd Tailgate. Fundamentally, the courtyard will function as a communal space for our students, faculty, and staff to sit, relax, and connect.

Lauren Fensterstock

Fensterstock is best known for creating elaborate sculptures and installations that explore the evolving history of our relationship to nature. By merging contradictory historic perspectives—from the Baroque to the Picturesque and Minimalism—she reveals the cultural roots of our concept of nature. Her intricate artworks are constructed in the material associated to women’s crafts, such as quilled paper and shell work, emphasizing the capacity of these media to reflect on the complexities of the world beyond the domestic sphere.
