THE CRIT

Critiquing for a day straight. I like it, as long as I don't have to do it everyday. 


. It's important to see the work of your peers, what they are doing and thinking. 

. "Art comes out of failure.. you can't sit around, terrified of being incorrect, saying, 'I won't do anything until I do a masterpiece.' " I find that including any work I consider to be a failure in critique is extremely helpful. 

. The alternative group critique where the only person who is not allowed to speak is the presenting artist. This should provide interesting feedback, or it could turn out to be a great failure, but in reality those are possible outcomes for any critique. I like it because I find it very interesting to see how others interpret your work without any explanation, but it shouldn't be the only way. 

. Argument between - turning its back to the art market, students need to develop artistic projects that are independent of the marketplace OR should their work be influenced by the current trends and demands ??

. Asher says, "decisions that go into making a work are often social" but others "believe that creativity is a very personal process that cannot be taught".
