Please read the Krauss text sent via email and answer the prompts I will send you via google worksheets tomorrow. I suggest highlighting some things that stand out to you in text, and looking up any terms/references you are not familiar with.

Response (10 points):
-What would have been so problematic about the classification of these artists' works at the time it they were made?
-This text was written in the late 1970's. How may we find ourself in a similar situation today written regards to identifying/cataloguing and understanding current creative practice?
-Of the object-oriented "sculptural" work being made today, what type of work do you find most challenging to accept or understand?
We will spend the first 30 mins of class discussing this. Please come prepared to share your thoughts. Bring some notes to help you communicate your ideas.
2. Bring a new work to share
Bring in a new work to share that fits into what you define as sculptural practice. There are only three limitations:
New- must be made now for this class. Nothing for another class or anything made last semester. It's fine if it's something you started working on during winter break.
Object World- The pice must relate to sculptural practice. It can not be traditional 2-D work or straight film. How it relates needs to be explainable by you.
3. Discussion on Work brought in for show and tell.
In your opinion, what are the most successful aspects of the work?
In your opinion, what are the areas you most need to grow that were evidenced in the creation and presentation of this piece?
In general, what are the most successful aspects of your current practice? Areas of greatest opportunity for growth?

Curatorial Process-
For the last hour of the class we will go to the NWSA gallery to peek into the curatorial process for mounting a show. In this case, the Sculpture Alumni exhibit.
