In Focus: Works from the UALR Permanent Collection
House as Subject Matter
Artists often use the same subject matter to tell very different stories. In this exhibition study six works from the UALR Permanent Collection have been grouped together because each artist used the house form in their compositional design. Viewers are invited to look for similarities and differences between the works as they study the content and meaning of each artwork.

Compare and Contrast
Looking at two works by the same artist you can compare and contrast studio techniques, form, and content. Is there a consistency in the mark making in both works that easily identifies the artist’s hand or are the works different in tone? Do the two artworks focus on the same subject? Four artists are presented in this exhibition study. Each artist is represented by two works from the UALR Permanent Collection.

Zachary Taylor (cir. 1999), Paint on Paper
George Washington (cir 1999) Paint on Paper
