Art Club Hosts Mary Beth Haas

The NorthWest Arkansas Community College Art Club will be hosting guest speaker Mary Beth Haas from 7 to 9 p.m. Nov. 10 in room 108 A/B of college’s student center.

Haas is primarily interested in the “aesthetics of touch” and how the hand figures in making and experiencing art, and her work often utilizes repetitive hand gestures such as sewing stitches or throwing the shuttle on a loom. Much of her work is concerned with how the viewer interacts with the piece and often includes active touching and arranging of components. She has taught at Memphis College of Art and teaches in the graphic design department at NorthWest Arkansas Community College.
