Students of ATL498: Bodies in Evidence, a class co-taught by novelist Toni Morrison and installation artist Christian Tomaszewski, took over the Lucas Gallery this week to produce a maze-like exhibit called Middle End Beginning. Poet Paul Muldoon was spotted at the opening reception yesterday, taking a walk through the rooms and talking to the students about their pieces.

Perhaps the most popular room was one that housed an edible Virgin Mary and Jesus. Perplexed viewers looked at the partially-eaten sculpture, wondering if they should dig into the student’s work, admire the finely-crafted icing Jesus face, or kneel down to say a prayer. Most elected to get a taste of their lord.
