| Description: | Sterling Allen, founder and co-director of Okay Mountain, discusses his work, followed by a Q&A.
This edition of Art in Practice is presented in conjunction with the course "Performing Critique" (ART 382), taught by Risa Puleo, assistant curator of contemporary art at the Blanton Museum of Art, and takes as its premise the idea that art is a conversation.
Allen received his B.F.A. in studio art from The University of Texas at Austin in 2003. In 2006, together with eight other Austin artists, he founded Okay Mountain. As a solo artist and in collaboration with Okay Mountain, he has exhibited and created numerous projects at venues throughout the United States and received several residencies, including the Artpace International Artist-In-Residence Program in San Antonio, Texas. He is currently pursuing an M.F.A. in Sculpture at the Milton Avery Graduate School of Arts at Bard College.
Art in Practice provides guidance and insight into the professional world to students preparing for careers in the arts. Varying topics of conversation range from a nuts-and-bolts approach to gaining valuable job skills to broad issues relevant to creative culture as a whole. |
