Details

Outside the Lines is the fourth and final exhibition inspired by Boise Art Museum’s Art Cards, a project designed to encourage engagement with artworks in BAM’s Permanent Collection. Based on the Art Card deck True Colors, this exhibition explores the ways in which artists employ the elements of art and principles of design to convey mood, provoke emotional responses, and communicate with viewers. While the artworks are organized in themes of Line; Shape and Form; Space; Color; and Texture; these categories often overlap. Using principles of design, the elements of art can be expressed in a vast number of ways, as demonstrated by the diversity of artwork presented in this exhibition.
