Art students at Boise State University will present a unique interactive exhibition titled

�do it� May 11-15 in Gallery 2 in the Hemingway Western Studies Center. The Hemingway Center is located northwest of the Student Union. The free exhibition is open from noon-5 p.m. Sunday and 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday through Thursday.

�do it� is a collaborative exhibition of works created by the students of Boise State art professor Cheryl K. Shurtleff. Each piece is an interpretation of instructions for creating works of art written by prominent contemporary artists such as Yoko Ono, Ilya Kabakov, Jason Rhodes, Christian Boltanski and others. The artists must exercise their interpretative skills in a unique realization of the instructions. The idea is not to recreate or copy works, but instead to "interpret" the instructions to create something unique.

�do it� is also interactive, and visitors will have an opportunity to participate in the completion of the various works of art exhibited.
