70 years.

While youre sat down in your office reflecting on the success of the class, you findthe ticket stub in your pocket and notice the terms and conditions on the back. Uponreading them you see that photography is prohibited within the museum.

On your way home you walk past the museum and see a flyer advertising the sameexhibition. It shows several of the contemporary works alongside some of the olderart work, in a professional and attractive style. You take a picture on your phone and

later add that to your lecture slides.

You also notice a fantastic sculpture being unveiled outside the museum. Again youtake a picture of this statue, add it to the slides and then upload the wholePowerPoint to your blog, artacademic.com.
