Always Looking: A Fall Break Art Camp Inspired by the Art of Otto Duecker

Prairie Arts Center is excited to once again partner with the OSU Museum of Art for this year's Fall Break Camp. This 3-day camp will begin on Wednesday, October 14th with a visit to the museum for an interactive tour of Look Again: Encountering the Art of Otto Duecker. Duecker's hyperrealist style will surely amaze, delight, and inspire students! In our own art making, we will share in Duecker's attention to ordinary objects, his play with scale, and his visual storytelling. Students should bring a lunch and snack, and come dressed for the weather and making messes.

Instructor’s name
Art educator Jen Johnson holds an undergraduate degree in art history and English literature from the University of Kansas, as well as an MAT (Masters in the Art of Teaching) from the English Department at the University of Montana. In her own practice, Jen is equally invested in understanding the larger world through her interactions with the art objects of others and the making of her own art objects. Jen considers her greatest strengths as an educator to be the facilitation of reflective and critical conversations about art and art making, as well as the creation of safe environments for authentic explorations into the practices of self-expression and making. Her preferred mediums are mixed media, printmaking, and photography, but she enjoys the act of creation no matter the medium and considers it one of her greatest joys to make art alongside others.
