Victoria Buck
-Mixed art
-take your time picking a grad school
-definitely visit the school
-Residency in the North Pole
-remember to move on if something in your work is not
working out
-be sincere in your work: make work that YOU want to make,
not that you think other people will find “cool”
-where do you want your work to be? How do you want it to
exist?
-say yes to opportunities, you have nothing to lose

Working in studio today
Just a reminder – and for those of you who weren't in the last class – today is a work-in-the-studio day. I'll be around, but you don't have to show up for class.

re-posting for the interviews
UNDERLINE what you think are the main, most interesting quotes in the article, and in a brief sentence for each, explain why you think those quotes are particularly interesting.
ASTERISK any words or names you don't know, and look them up, providing definitions/brief bios.
MAKE A VOCABULARY LIST of what you think are the key terms and concepts the artist is talking about.
SUMMARIZE the world view of the artist, as it appears in the interview. What is the artist's work "about?" What sorts of historical, social, political, formal, and aesthetic ideas does the artist's work engage?

SOME QUESTIONS TO ADD
HERE ARE SOME QUESTIONS FOR YOU TO INTEGRATE WITH YOUR "WORKING ARTIST" QUESTIONS LIST
(as you can see, they're pretty blunt about the "making a living" part - by next class, please have all your questions finalized, and printed out in a copy you'll hand in to me)
(as you can see, they're pretty blunt about the "making a living" part - by next class, please have all your questions finalized, and printed out in a copy you'll hand in to me)
How much of your annual income comes from your art, and how much comes from other sources?
What percentage of your time do you actually spend working in your studio? And what do you spend the rest of your life doing to support that time?
Do you belong to any professional associations? If so, why? What are the advantages that membership provides you?
Do you belong to a wider artist's community, beyond any professional associations? What is that community, and why do you participate in it?
Who is your audience? Who buys your work? Does your audience consist of one consistent demographic, or different demographics? How have you expanded your audience over time? How do you market your work?
What sort of education and/or training have you pursued in your career as an artist? Was it worth it? What were the most valuable things you've taken away from your education or training?
Does your art practice have an impact on the way you do your taxes? If so, how?
What sorts of legal issues, if any, have you had to deal with in making or selling your art?
