Description
Paradox Traveling Art was founded and created by El Paso, Texas artist Laura Tur√≥n. The project is a traveling art installation project housed within a converted full-size school bus. The bus functions as a gallery and an art piece at the same time. With this project, Ms. Tur√≥n focuses on delivering art to areas that have limited or no access to art spaces; inspiring and encouraging artists; and providing art workshops, exhibitions at events, and lectures that promote creative expression and critical thinking. Available programs include interactive art installation exhibitions–visitors walk inside the gallery space within the bus, and interact with the current installation; workshops– visitors are able to participate in workshops to create art installations displayed within the gallery space or in workshops related to the current exhibit; and art talks– the current artist provides a talk about the current art installations and does a Q&A.
