Hi everyone,
Here's a great opportunity to create art installations in a very
interesting public site with a captive audience to talk about it!
The only catch is that I'm teaching it.
It's free and I want to pack the class with innovators like
yourselves.
Please sign up soon if it sounds good to you. I think they're
limiting the class to 12 artists!
Yours lovingly,
Mark Brest van Kempen
SUNNYSIDE CONSERVATORY
SPRING ART CLASS SERIES
List of Classes, Spring 2001
URBAN LANDSCAPES
Special Masters Class for Artists
(Participants should have B.F.A or M.F.A. level studio experience
or the
equivalent.)
Instructor: Mark Brest van Kempen
This class provides a rare opportunity for artists to create
public site
specific work in the unique environment of Sunnyside
Conservatory. From its
interesting architectural elements to its historical associations
with
colonialism and the Victorian interest in the exotic, the
Conservatory
provides a rich context for artists to respond with site specific
work. The
first meeting will be a slide-illustrated artist's talk
graciously hosted on
Wednesday evening by Bird and Beckett Books and Records in Glen
Park (on
Diamond @ Chenery). The
second meeting on the following Sunday will be held in the
Conservatory.
Mark Brest van Kempen has created a variety of artworks using the
landscape
itself as sculptural material. He received his MFA from the San
Francisco Art
Institute and has been an artist-in-residence at Marin Headlands
Center for
the Arts. His work has been presented in many publications
including Time
Magazine, The New York Times, LA Times and Lucy Lippardís newest
book, The
Lure of the Local. He has spoken around the country and abroad
on the
possibilities of creating artwork that functions outside the
museum /gallery
context and that brings aesthetic and symbolic meaning to
everyday
situations. He has recently taught at the San Francisco Art
Institute and
Stanford University.
Wednesday, March 28, 7-9 p.m. and Sunday, April 1, 1-4 p.m.
