My Concept is My Concept (working title) – Briar Rosales

The context of my life is a short book of drawings, photos, journal entries and quotes form artists. These reflect how I and other artist precise the art world and how in such a open ended world, art we create has so many expectations as well as us as artists.

The main idea that drove my collection and will continue to help it grow is that we as artists are constantly being influenced, pushed and pulled to fit into this world where everything should have a place. This book is a compilation of my questions and some answers I have for the art world and those who occupy it.
These are My Concept is My Concept

The Form of the Encounter – Collabs/Interviews/Exchanges

Download the Relational Aesthetics readings here

Start your groups by describing  and assessing each of the projects brought by the group members. After these presentations discuss the intentions, methods and outcomes of the project. Conduct an informal critique that focuses on content and concept, and especially on the “form of the encounter”. Decide on one person to be the escribe and develop an outline of your communal critique to be posted in the class blog afterwards.
