This is what we discussed on Monday
DC Gallery Visit
Saturday, March 19
Call galleries to make appointments (starting the day around 9am)
Make sure to let them know the particular artist we want to see so they can pull things for us
New Artist
Artists for March 7 Presentation
David- Vivian Sassen, Patrick Jacobs, (Jae Ko)
Erin- Matthew Buckingham, Lalla Essaydi
Eldis- Luke Jarim, Melissa Ichuiji
Michelle- Kinke Kooi, Jenny Morgan
Mara- Isidro Blasco, Michael Wolf ( I know that I was undecided during the meeting and had originally planned to talk about Francesca Woodman, but I thought it would be nice to get some feedback about Isidro Blasco, and I also wanted to look more at Micheal Wolf because I think we all agreed that we liked his work and looking at his website he has alot of different work)
General Outline to Include in Presentations
- Themes
- How the artist/artwork fits into collection
- How the artist/artwork relates to other artist/movements or fits into the tradition of art (historical context)
- Price (think about justifying prices for more expensive pieces)
- Clear rationale for describing the work (going beyond aesthetics)
- Think of potential arguments against the work
- Consider questions about each artist/piece to ask the committee about
NY Gallery List Google Doc
Everyone-make sure your galleries are on the google doc
Eldis- arrange google doc by location
Erin-arrange locations by proximity
Include studio visists to Queens, East Village (Derek Melander), and Brooklyn (Jenny Morgan)
Friday, March 4 (7pm in Stamp)
- Go over presentation and practice
- Need to make an overall outline of NY visit with times and places
- Assign time slots for everyone to make appointments for galleries clustered together
Also, Joy Curtis and James Casebere. I thought we all agreed we liked him, but based on how my artists did, maybe not... Just kidding, but I'm seriously interested in both Joy Curtis and James Casebere.
