A Brief Explanation

This blog is part of the curriculum for the seminar class, Process to Synthesis taught at Mississippi University for Women. The class is designed to help junior-level art students find coherence in their art, their thinking, their process, and their aesthetics.

As a part of that course; this site will publish lectures, readings, and assignments and will promote discussion. Right now, this site is still being updated and adjusted, though the class has been running since 2014.

What I like about Artforum's review of reviews on their site: the geographic diversity, the diversity of big names versus the obscure, and the diversity of commercial as well as other kinds of galleries.

What I don't like: many of the shows they choose to review,  the lack of criticism in the reviews, the small size and paltry number of images, and the lack of links to gallery or artist websites (it's like they are afraid we won't come back).

Of the shows found on this link, I like Jessica Halonen, and the "Painter Painter" show in Minneapolis.  Plus, I still enjoy Kiefer. 

Don't forget to look at the menu on the left of the page- it shows you all the shows by location.
