Interactive Art
Interactive art can be seen in some of these examples. I appreciate the general philosophy that art is inspired by many things around us and by interacting with daily objects allows us as observers to then participate in artistic creations.
In Baltimore’s “Giving Birth to Dreams” Location exhibit that took place in March, 2008, Scion, the car company that partnered with AM Radio to launch the interactive exhibit noted that, “Everything we see around us is inspired by art, but this concept is not always obvious to the masses. LOCATION bridges the mental divide and illustrates the direct affects of art on life.”
The Dallas Museum of Art has a similar interactive approach with their new Center for Creative Connections which uses methods of tactile objects and touch screens that help the viewer become a part of the creative process. Frank Gehry’s cardboard chairs, for example are on view so the visitor can sit and touch them and get a feel for how they were created.
I like that they fully expect their crisp, clean, new interactive art studio to be covered with paint splatters!
Here’s my previous post, when I just started this blog, on the interactive ability of art — in shared commentary and learning about what inspires.

I'm an artist, wife and mother of two boys. I started my illustration business, The Occasional Palette over 35 years ago, when my oldest son was an infant. Once my children were in school, I began painting decorative, faux finishes and murals through my second business, Casart, now over 30 years old. My third business, Casart Coverings, is a springboard from my second.
