Kira Freije // ARTISTS’ LUNCHTIME CRIT
We spent an afternoon talking about five artists’ works. The group was generous in their discussion and open to critical input, it was a relaxed but serious collection of conversations.

The White Pube // ARTISTS LUNCHTIME CRIT
At the crit last satdee, there were little moments of conversation about editing, feeling, airport security, and art that goes all out maximalist ; but we want to circle back round to whether or not a piece of art you make is finished.
GRAY WIELEBINSKI // ARTISTS’ LUNCHTIME FEEDBACK
An unofficial theme of today could be contemplating the notion of process in any practice: how does our work and the narratives we have around it function in the every day? How can we talk about and express “process” in our practices and our lives at large? In what ways are we pushed in or […]
Illustration is everywhere [Jhinuk Sarkar // ARTISTS LUNCHTIME FEEDBACK]
