Lincoln Sudbury Regional High School’s 13th annual Celebrate Art exhibition located in the A-B connector displayed a dazzling array of student artwork giving L-S students the opportunity to showcase their creativity.
Beginning at the end of March and ending in April, Celebrate Art featured an impressive array of two dimensional and three dimensional art created both independently and in the many art courses offered at L-S.
Culminating in an assembly featuring student films and performances by L-S musicians, the exhibition displayed a wide variety of work in a number of media. Pieces created in the L-S metal smithing classes, photographs, wild collages and pottery pieces were on display alongside computer-generated images, paintings and drawings. An electric guitar painted with the likeness of Jimmy Hendrix added a hint of psychadelia, and was one of the many functional pieces of the show, which also included teapots and belt buckles.
Notable features were the L-S winners of the Boston Globe Art Show Award. Pieces winning gold keys by Austin Rourke and Gillian Thompson were on display, along with those of Silver key winners Ashley Stubbs and Rebecca Simon.
After the exhibition, the L-S website will feature songs inspired by the art, written by students in John Germanotta’s song writing class. A colorful display of student ingenuity and finesse, Celebrate Art reflects the artistic creativity of L-S students.
