The University of Kansas
Spencer Museum of Art
Dialogue with the Director – Stop Look Listen Stop // Look // Listen
An installation by Janet Davidson-Hues & Maria Velasco
Commissioned by the Spencer, artists Velasco and Davidson-Hues have created an unusual "way-finding system" for the museum. Inspired by images from the SMA collection and common traffic signage, their works outside the museum announce "Warning: Art Approaching," while MP3 audio tours inside offer offbeat looks at the collection, encouraging visitors to slow down and, as the title suggests, stop, look, and listen.
