Robert Motherwell Challenge

Art work by four Northwestern University students is currently on display at the Urban Outfitters store in Evanston.

A panel of judges selected these works from art submitted by students in the Robert Motherwell Challenge. Prompted by the Block's exhibition of Motherwell's work this fall, the Challenge asked students to submit their best "Motherwell-inspired" work.

The display will be up through December 6. Urban Outfitters is located at 921 Church Street.
