The Art of the Brick exhibit of Lego art by former lawyer Nathan Sawaya is drawing big crowds at Cincinnati's Museum Center. As much as the artwork, I enjoyed seeing the kids (and my grandson) relate to a toy-medium-in-art. Legos become like other art-creating material, whether pigment, digital ...

How does the brain decide what visual images it likes or not? What regions of the brain are activated by making or viewing art? How is the brain persuaded that one image is appealing and the other less so? Recent advances by researchers imaging the brain while viewing and making visual imagery are beginning ...Stretching is good exercise, and that includes visual stretching, taking a few minutes to see things anew with a maybe-I-missed-that viewpoint.

After four months of confusion in their effort to prove more than 150 counts of fraud, prosecutors in the Dewey trial ended in a mistrial.

Can the visual arts teach you to be a better trial lawyer? That was the question before a group of trial lawyers from across the US who gathered in New Orleans and heard our presentation last week at the American Bar Association’s annual national meeting for its Litigation Section.
