Things that Matter: Art by Children with Autism
Share
By Malcolm Gay
Published on April 18, 2008 at 4:40am
The premise: Artistic creation can help children with autism to better express themselves. The disorder, which affects a person's ability to communicate, often includes intense fascinations with things: stoves, Hello Kitty, dinosaurs. Harnessing this fascination, coordinators Bevin Early and Nancy Pierson asked children to make art about their obsessions. So we have a video of a teenager dancing to Willy Wonka's "The Golden Ticket," a collection of found objects from a boy who collects everything he can and repeated self-portraits of a young boy.
Tuesdays-Saturdays. Starts: April 18. Continues through Sept. 13, 2008
