thesis review numero uno.
honestly i was sort of disappointed with my first thesis reviews. the whole process was very rushed...after explaining my work style to people that are unfarmiliar with it, there was only a few moments left for general commentary. i appreciated having paul demuro look at my work because i like his perspective on painting and i've been told that his style could relate to mine. one of the things that i did take from the review was some suggested reference artists that i had never heard of, including a little-known french '60s movement called "support surface." also discussed was the treatment of painting presentation in an untraditional matter since my work questions the constructs of painting and takes it to its most basic elements. aside from this i didn't take to much from such a brief crit...hopefully that changes in the near future as i need all of the insight I can get.

Hey Vincent,
ReplyDeleteYeah, those crits get a little rushed. Hope I was helpful.
here is a link I thought you might be interested in... the show is over, but these artists may be good for you to look at.

thanks for that paul...definitely worth further investigation. i understand the rush...i'm just looking for as much input as possible, something that tends to lack when it comes to my work regardless of the time frame.
