Teaching the future in 2009


I will be talking to a class of students tomorrow studying applied disciplines that are fundamentally engaged with society and culture within the art context. These pieces will be used as examples of my discipline in an effort to visualize the way an artist works within the confines of a given pre-described system. I am intending this work to pinpoint a distinction between medias reliance on the two dimensional and the common practitioners need to engage the viewer on a more physical level. Normally I would tell you where this is happening but given the recent hatred perusing this site I will have to keep my happenings off the radar.

PACE University Street Walk/Talk

Tomorrow at 1:30 I will be meeting Stephanie Diamond and her Pace University Class at the SW corner of Wooster and Grand. Stephanie was an unexpected collaborator with one of my first public projects back December of 2000. I only found out about the conversation our work was having through a small article in the New York Times City Section. Stephanie has been kind enough to ask me to lead the class and her on a quick jaunt to see and discuss outdoor advertising and street arts relation to each other, and the public environment in general. Please feel free to join us.
