Keith Boadwee has exhibited internationally since the early 1990s, working in painting, sculpture, performance and body art. He is currently a faculty member in the graduate art departments at California College of the Arts and the San Francisco Art Institute. In the other corner, Justin Lieberman is a Brandeis University faculty member who founded the Student Art Collective. What do they have in common? On March 19, they will engage in a dialogue on their experiences as artists and art professors at the SculptureCenter. Actually, they have a lot more in common. Both teachers consciously adopt a position of loose authority, share an interest in collective authorship and radical education, and take a critical stance toward the professionalization of art school. Plus, Boadwee and Lieberman push questions of accepted taste in their art, challenging existing academic standards. Boadwee will discuss Club Paint, an ongoing collaboration with two former students. Lieberman will speak about SAC (currently on view at SculptureCenter), which examines ethics and power relations in pedagogical settings.
