Third Eye Blind plays '90s hits in Leverone

|

Alternative rockers Third Eye Blind hit the artificial turf of Leverone Field House Sunday night to deliver a high-energy 90-minute set that attracted an eclectic audience of Dartmouth undergrads and Hanover High School kids alike. The San Francisco-based quartet strummed out a crowd-pleasing set list that included such Top 40 radio staples as "Graduate" and "Jumper" from the band's 1997 self-titled debut.

Times art expert compares pop-culture and critical views

|

/ Courtesy of New York Public Library "We're all little Caesars expecting tribute, expecting exhibitions that come to us 50 [masterpieces] at a time," Michael Kimmelman said during his lecture entitled "From Wonder Cabinet to Department Store: Thoughts on the American Museum" at the Loew Auditorium last Friday evening. The head art critic of the New York Times and former Dartmouth professor delivered an energetic commentary on the origin and destiny of the museum in American society. Full of high-strung denunciations of museums around the world in typical art critic fashion, Kimmelman's comedic barrage of criticisms ultimately revealed something deeper about the philosophy of art in American society. He kicked off the lecture with a virtual tour (via PowerPoint) of the Roman galleries at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.

Book Arts gives artistic satisfaction -- and fun final product

|

It was my first time participating in the Book Arts workshop's open bindery studio, and all I knew about what to expect was that the project of the week was the "venetian blind book," described on the workshop's website as a "fun and versatile book that will delight the beholder, as if opening your blinds to a new day and a fresh beginning." Well, okay.

Class Divide attempts to instigate tough discussion

|

Class issues have always interested Lisel Murdock '09. Even as a teenager in Washington state, she was observant of the divides that existed between fellow students; the concept of "some people having to work so much more than others" was both fascinating and troubling to her. Now, as a sociology major and Class Divide Intern for the Hopkins Center, she has put together the Class Divide Student Creative Project - collections of photographs, paintings, stories and poems from different student artists that examine economic and social class.
