Fall 2020 Speaker Series
The University of Houston School of Art is proud to announce its Fall 2020 visiting speaker series, featuring practitioners and thinkers at the forefront of contemporary art, criticism and design. Distinguished guests offer a diverse range of perspectives on the most pertinent issues facing today’s makers and scholars. The series is a key component of students’ experience at the School of Art. In addition to presenting their work to a large audience of students and community members, speakers spend extended periods engaging directly with students in small gatherings for focused debate and conversation, in formats tailored to their individual practice. Past engagements have included hands-on workshops, masterclasses, studio visits, demonstrations and interactive performances. Recent guests include Charlene Villaseñor Black, Beverly Fishman, Coco Fusco, Jeffrey Gibson, David Rokeby, RaMell Ross, Richard The and Margaret Wertheim.
This Fall, our series goes online, broadcasting via Zoom, YouTube Live and Facebook Live. All lectures are free and open to the public.
