Most museums have a hands-off policy, but the LSU Museum of Art’s newest exhibit breaks all the rules.
The downtown museum showcased its first interactive sculpture exhibit, “Tearing Granite: Jesús hands.”
Sculpting graduate student Tom LaPann said he would usually associate the word “interactive” with an exhibit involving technology.
“I’ve never tried stone carving, but I’ve always wanted to,” LaPann said. “I’m excited about seeing granite sculptures done on such a large scale.”
“Tearing Granite” will be on display until April 29. Entry is free for museum members and students with an LSU ID and $5 for adult nonmembers.
