Love this Paul Gagner in SPRING/BREAK, curated by @rebeccamorgan10 and @stepheneakin #springbreakartshow2017 #springbreakartshow #paulgagner @paulgagner @springbreakartshow (at SPRING/BREAK Art Show)
Walking into the psychotherapy office of Dr. Lisa Levy and Dr. Howard Moseley (alter egos of the artists) was the highlight of Spring Break for me.  There were 4 separate “intake” forms which were in mad lib format. The office decor is completely realistic, as is the Doctor sitting at his desk. The only giveaways are upon closer inspection-sarcastic book jackets on the shelves, business cards which offer “inter-species” counseling and fake credentials on the walls.  Signs that say things like “You probably could have made this, but you didn’t.” And an in depth ego chart which outlines how to deal with every variation on the spectrum.  Again and again, Spring/Break tells you about yourself and it makes sense that the theme is “Black Mirror.”  Now I get it.

Art Statement #1
For better or worse, writing is an essential component of being a contemporary artist and becoming an articulate and effective writer can only strengthen your art making practice. Regular reflection and writing about your work will aid in your ability to invite others into conversations about your work, engage art historical and theoretical discourse, and comment on trends in contemporary art.
The main objective in writing an art statement is to provide your reader with information about your ideas, inspiration, and the context by which you want your work to be viewed and experienced. The statement also gives you a valuable opportunity to define for yourself the critical conversation you want to engage through your art.
Be honest with yourself and take stock of what you know about your work, process, and ideas. Consider the following questions:
What am I doing? How am I doing it? Why am I doing it? What influences me most? How does my art relate to the work of my contemporaries? What do I want others to understand about my work?
For the first draft of your art statement, please address each of the above questions in a document that is roughly 3-4 paragraphs long, no longer than 1 page. Â
Any art statements that are longer than 1 page WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.
Please have your typed Artist Statement printed out and ready to turn in at the beginning of class on Tuesday, October 3rd.
