I'm a big fan of Bay Area artist Judith Selby Lang, and of the Palo Alto Art Center, which has been commissioning some excellent work of late.
This week I got to see Lang's new installation at the Palo Alto Lawn Bowls Club with a group of excited 2nd graders. They were treated to a well-designed appreciation activity, learning how Lang and her helpers made the work, what inspired her and some of the environmental and aesthetic ideas that inform her creations.
