Gather up your art school degrees and head over to Harris Lieberman at 8 pm on Thursday to be schooled by the Bruce High Quality Foundation. (Incidentally, I feel like a horse might be in better order here, cliched colloquialism be damned.)
“The Bruce High Quality Foundation’s 45-minute presentation, ‘Explaining pictures to a dead bull,’ demonstrates that institutionalized art education, by being willfully indebted to the art market, has limited art’s agency within the market and, by extension, limited art’s ability to educate. The presentation charts a course through the advent of the credit card, the GI Bill, The 1973 Scull Sale, the Post-Studio class at CalArts, and the contemporary MFA market, to propose a new future for art education.”
