If you could represent the Glasscock School’s vibrant community in an abstract work of art, what would it look like? We like to imagine it would look something like Sol LeWitt’s “Wall Drawing #1115,” which graces the cover of this fall’s catalog. The hundreds of painted “bands” that comprise this artwork vary in shape, size and color. Together, they form interwoven circles, radiating powerful energy and a sense of joy. This work will be installed in late fall on a two-story wall in the Anderson-Clarke Center’s Dean’s Commons, the central convening space of our school.
