The Paint School exhibition will feature new work by members of the inaugural (2017-18) cohort including: Benny Merris, Caroline R Kent, Cynthia Daignault, Crys Yin, Gloria Maximo, Iman Raad, Jarrett Earnest, Lindsay Marie Burke, Matthew Dale Fischer, Morgan Mandalay, Sophie Grant, and Tim Wilson. These individuals were mentored through Paint School by artists Josephine Halvorson, Byron Kim, Ulrike Müller, Howardena Pindell, and Faith Ringgold, as well as Ian Alteveer, curator of Modern and Contemporary at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, NY. The theme of the inaugural session of Paint School was “the future of painting.” The program used pedagogy and discussion to investigate this theme and welcomed individuals of all career levels as participants.
Paint School is a free master class in the theory and practice of painting produced by Shandaken Projects. This lecture-based program brings twelve fellows together with six individuals widely recognized as among the most exceptional painters working today, with the aim to enrich the discourse of contemporary painting through peer exchange. Applications for the next session of Paint School will open in mid-September. Click here for more information.
