Artist Talk by SOLO Artists: Material Exchange

The more art slides between convention and social action, sculpture and public performance, art and the everyday, the more complicated it is to talk about. As socially engaged art rides the boundaries of multiple subjects simultaneously, historians, critics, and other artists must develop multifaceted responses. To discuss projects that include a broad and unfolding web of topics such as art, racial politics, and gender is to speak in many voices all at the same time. The aim of Talking with Your Mouth Full is to contribute language to the critical framework for these projects in an effort to refine discussions around socially engaged art.

A companion publication featuring new work from panelists, will be available at each event. Published in collaboration with The Green Lantern Press.
