Book excerpt: Featuring works from the Samuel Dorsky Museum of Art's permanent collection, this illustrated catalogue documents an interdisciplinary exhibition, hosted periodically by the museum, in which faculty and staff from across the SUNY New Paltz campus are invited to respond a variety of works of art, including archaeological artifacts, sculpture, painting, and photography. The responses range from short academic and personal essays to stories and poems, and taken together they offer innovative examples of how to approach art from a variety of academic disciplines and personal perspectives.
