Danielle Paz, a Spanish Assistant a The Trout Gallery, writes the following about her team&#8217;s idea for Unintentional Art:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Throughout our at-home commitments this summer, we have witnessed the birth of many new forms of art. Our world\u2019s suffering of a global pandemic, and the civil unrest due to the unjust killings of black men and women has caused for a powerful rise in art. Our cities have been flooded with signs, graffiti, vandalism, peaceful protests and more\u2013often compiled by the communities they are found within. From street signs saying, &#8216;Don\u2019t Kill Us,&#8217; \u00a0to new outdoor art exhibits, and the MET&#8217;s recent reopening (marking a significant return to museum settings). Art is everywhere\u2013whether that&#8217;s a traditional museum setting or not. This project \u201cUnintentional Art\u201d is meant to probe Dickinsonians and viewers to look deeper into the things that surround you, and question: What makes art? Is it always intentional? And, finally, how does Unintentional Art tell a story that we are unable to?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_725\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-725\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-725 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.dickinson.edu\/trouttalk\/files\/2020\/09\/thumbnail_Image-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.dickinson.edu\/trouttalk\/files\/2020\/09\/thumbnail_Image-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.dickinson.edu\/trouttalk\/files\/2020\/09\/thumbnail_Image-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.dickinson.edu\/trouttalk\/files\/2020\/09\/thumbnail_Image-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.dickinson.edu\/trouttalk\/files\/2020\/09\/thumbnail_Image-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/blogs.dickinson.edu\/trouttalk\/files\/2020\/09\/thumbnail_Image.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-725\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo taken by Trout Student Spanish Assistant, Danielle Paz. 2020.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">What questions do you have about this image?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Where might you see something like this?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Does it belong in a museum, or someplace else?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Does it remind you of any artworks you have seen in a traditionally artistic space?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Let us know what you think about our showcased Unintentional Artworks!<\/p>\n<p>Have a submission?
