A Class I Am Teaching this summer 2014

Sign on UP!

http://www.sfai.edu/pranksinarts

What is the legacy of making transgressive art? How do you make art subverting the dominant paradigms and survive? Stay out of jail? Not break the law? From the Dadaists to Punk Rock, The Diggers to The San Francisco Cacophony Society—we will cover it all in this class. I will lecture on these topics, give assignments, show videos and images, bring in guest artists, and present first-hand anecdotes on this overlooked special genre of contemporary art. There will be a special emphasis on San Francisco practitioners in the field and the recently released book I am featured in and contributed to, Tales of The San Francisco Cacophony Society.

I seem to have a certain critic referencing my class…..http://www.vulture.com/2013/12/saltz-on-the-trouble-with-the-mfa.html

“but it’s also time for grad programs to stress courses in craft and various skills — from blacksmithing to animal tracking,”
