Over
the past three weeks, I have been traveling throughout Los Angeles
meeting with various artists and interviewing them. I also had the
chance to look at the Women's Building archives at Otis College of Art
and Design and work in Suzanne Lacy's archives. Not to mention, I got to
spend time exploring the vibrant art scene that LA has to offer. Last
week, on Saturday, I went to LACMA for the first time and got to see a
wonderful exhibit of
Sharon Lockhart and a very interesting piece called
Metropolis II.
That same weekend, I went to Molaa, Museum of Latin American Art in
Long Beach. There was a panel discussion on their recent exhibition
entitled "Play with Me." It was a fascinating conversation about
participation and interactive art.
On Tuesday, my mother
and I drove up the coast together, stopping in Morro Bay for the
evening. The next day, yesterday, we drove the rest of the way (to
Pacifica) with a little hiking excursion in a beautiful state park. For
the next week, I will be in and out of San Francisco consolidating my
research and taking a bit of a break from everything else.
Stuff I'll be writing up soon: My interviews with Andrea Bowers, Judy Baca, and Suzanne Lacy
