Art can be beautiful, interesting, or downright weird, depending on the person who sees it.
Art is also a reflection of history and for centuries it has been the job of museums all over the world to preserve this history. Luckily to view our own piece of history we do not have far to go. For 18 years the Nora Eccles Harrison Museum of Art, on the USU campus, has been dedicated to the study, care and procurement of modernist art works created on the Western side of the United States. Until March 19, the museum is exhibiting a portion of its private collection, acquired during the 1998 and 1999 acquisition years. According to Steven W. Rosen, museum director and chief curator, these works of art reflect the diverse ways in which creative minds see the world.
