Guest blogging @ Art21 Blog

March 5th, 2009

From March 2-13, I am writing as a guest blogger on the Art21 Blog. My posts will be about my experience teaching two courses at the École des Beaux-Arts de Nantes, “Contemporary Art in the United States, 2000-Today” and “Workshop: I am curious…(The Artist as Ethnographer).” Here’s a link to my introductory post (pictured above).

Special thanks to Marc Mayer (Art21 Program Coordinator) and to Kelly Shindler (Art21 Director of Special Projects and editor of the Art21 Blog).
