Art as Exercise
An Exercise in Art is based on “Liberation,” a sculpture by David Barr. The work consists of separate objects or groups of objects scattered throughout the NCRC landscape. To you left you will find an map that will guide you through the tour that includes a brief narrative describing each sculpture along with photos.
MHealthy has devised a way for people to appreciate “An Exercise in Art” while at the same time becoming more physically fit by putting together some simple MHealthy Strength/Stretching Exercises PDF that you can do at each sculpture to increase your fitness level.
The strengthening exercises may be done with or without weights. Before beginning any exercise program, consult with your doctor.
We hope you enjoy this “Exercise in Art.” If you have questions about the exercises, please contact MHealthy at mhealthy@umich.edu or 734-647-7888.
