1. Take the artist statement I handed you, and mark it up with some editing suggestions. Again, this isn't just restricted to making suggestions about what's there, on the page – there might be elements from the person's talk and Q&A at MAPR that struck you you as interesting/pertinent, that perhaps aren't addressed in the artist statement, that you think should be woven in.
2. I'd like everyone to post a link to an online article from an art publication, on a topic of their choosing – post the link as a "comment" to this blog post. I'm interested in the wider "art world conversation" you feel like your work connects to. Over the next few weeks, I'll be asking each of you to run a class discussion on the topic that's highlighted in your article.
Here are a few online art writing/audio/video resources we pooled in class (plus a couple more I've thrown on the pile):
99 percent invisible
abstract
alberti's window
art21
art in america
art practical
art report
artforum
brooklyn rail
bombing science
create (adobe)
curate joshua tree
double scoop
hyperallergic
This is the kind of neat tools and effects Create throws out there pretty consistently.

If you use photoshop this is a neat and quick effect.
