Shana Moulton ('04) and Alix Pearlstein (Faculty '04 and Skowhegan Governor)

Saturday, February 2 at 3:00 pm

P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center

SkowheganTALKS is free with admission to P.S.1

Video artists Shana Moulton and Alix Pearlstein will present the first in a new series of conversations, SkowheganTALKS.  The series will feature emerging artists who are recent Skowhegan alumni "interviewing" established artists who have been faculty at Skowhegan.  While the association with Skowhegan is the common factor among all the artists, the conversations will focus on subjects of broader interest including the participating artists' current and past work and the challenges and opportunities inherent in the experience of working as an artist today.  The format of SkowheganTALKS is an extension of the non-traditional teacher student model that is at the core of the Skowhegan experience, one that stresses collegiality over a hierarchical construction. 

Skowhegan is pleased to present SkowheganTALKS at P.S.1, an institution whose embrace of new ideas and trends in contemporary art mirrors the spirit of experimentation and risk-taking that distinguishes Skowhegan.
