Visual Humor, the controversial exhibit curated by Erica Hughes, NOVA professor of Art History (MA), remains open to the public through February 1. Try to find the one artwork that was censored due to public complaints while considering the benefits of challenging expressions versus community engagement. The exhibit even continues in the bathroom!
