A look at the reopening and new direction of the Jacob Lawrence Gallery

The University of Washington in Seattle is playing host to a series of interactive art installations this month, called "Mad Campus."

A review of the haunting, thought-provoking museumwide exhibition "Ann Hamilton: the common SENSE," at Henry Art Gallery through April 26, 2015.

Drama, lectures, dance and exhibitions fill this especially busy week in the arts. From the closing of the Mad Campus exhibition to the start of the UW World Series collaboration with Noche Flamenca on a new work, "Antigona," there's plenty to see and do.

The 'Seattle Sketcher' captures the Mad Campus exhibit at the UW Seattle Campus, which is up through Oct. 25.

There's no better time to take in the beauty of the UW campus than now. MadArt, which brings the work of local artists to public spaces, has organized a vibrant campus-wide outdoor art exhibit that runs through October 25.

University of Washington's Chamber Dance Company members delivered an inspired rendition of "To Have and to Hold," and Erin Cardinal was a standout in Nacho Duato's "Jardi Tancat."

MadArt creates a spectacle with a dozen art installations on campus through October 25.

If you have ever needed a compelling reason to explore the UW campus, now is the time. Until Oct. 25, 12 works of art are on display in a project called Mad Campus.

From Helen of Troy to the Kardashian sisters, celebrities have fascinated the public for centuries. Why? And what is the effect on those in the spotlight?

The free outdoor MadArt exhibit on the UW campus lets children climb on, walk through or lie under many of the pieces- and even add to one of them.

If you happen to see a 28-foot cowboy looming over the campus at the University of Washington, never fear. He's a big softy! The "Lone Stranger" is the largest of 12 works that make up Mad Campus.
