Urban Explorers students visit the New Museum to view the visual work of Peter Saul: Crime and Punishment exhibit.
Students discussed the social commentary and political reasoning of Peter's Sauls visual paintings.
The students had a revelatory experience while taking in the massive, colorful, potent paintings that addressed police brutality, the history of dictators and nuclear war. The students responded to the animation aesthetic while the work had experimental layers that the students discussed; connecting how the exhibit challenged the ways artist can use form to make the viewer be confronted with the artist's message.
