Teen Art Council Presents: I Will Not Make Any More Boring Art! An Afternoon of Art Challenges from John Baldessari

While teaching his famous Post Studio Art class at CalArts in the 1970s, conceptual artist John Baldessari created a list of 109 assignments that challenged his students’ ideas about how to create art. These whimsical exercises range from “Given: $1. What art can you do for that amount?” to “Disguise an object to look like another object.”

MCASD’s Teen Art Council (TAC) invites you to drop-in during a three-hour workshop of Baldessari-inspired artmaking assignments in conjunction with the exhibition John Baldessari: A Print Retrospective From the Collections of Jordan D. Schnitzer and His Family Foundation.

This event is free-of-cost to current high school students.  To register, send an email to education@mcasd.org with the subject line “No More Boring Art” that includes your name, high school, and grade.
