Artcenter talks : Graduate seminar : the first decade 1986-1995

Douglas, Stan, 1960- (editor.).

Summary: Introduced in 1986 as an initiative by Richard Hertz (Chair, Academic Studies, 1979-2003), the Graduate Art Department of the ArtCenter College of Design, located in Pasadena, California, celebrates its thirtieth anniversary in 2016. This book documents the first decade of the department's existence by presenting a selection from over three hundred talks, including a 1990 symposium conducted by renowned curator and art historian Robert Storr, as well as twelve talks from its artists and critics lecture series known as the Graduate Seminar. Discussions between students and faculty members range from what it means to be an artist and the changing role of art in society, to how artists function within an academic setting.
