Art (Monsters University)

Art is one of the tritagonists of Disney/Pixar's 2013 animated film, Monsters University. A furry purple monster with an arch shape and blue stripes on his body. He is a student at Monsters University, and a member of the Oozma Kappa fraternity. He seems to be a comic relief in the movie. Director Dan Scanlon says of him he is "that weird college guy you don’t know anything about",[1] and that he is a student "Not quite sure what he should be... and we're not quite sure what he is either."[2] Art is a New Age Philosophy major, and has been to jail before.[3] For some reason, Art doesn't have a last name, or at least it is never mentioned and is, therefore, the only named student in the film without one.[4]
