GVSU Arts Celebration: Art as a Way of Knowing (and not knowing) Animals: An Artist Talk by Maria Lux ( INT 100 approved)
Friday, September 18, 2026
11:00 a.m. - 12:30 p.m.
Allendale Campus
Alumni, Community, Faculty, Staff, Students
Always focused on animals, Maria Lux’s research-based artworks take on serious topics, often through an ‘unserious’ approach like absurdity, humor, playfulness, cuteness, darkness, horror, or narrative. Broadly, Maria’s work joins that of other research-driven artists in arguing for art as an important form of research itself, generating new knowledge through creative practice. In this lecture, learn how Maria approaches making her artwork about animals from a research-based lens. A free luncheon with the artist will follow the presentation. Registration is required. https://bit.ly/LuxGVSU
