Public Arts Proposals w/ Piero Golia

11 September 2010 1 - 3 PM

An ASAP @ LACE Workshop

Stop by for an afternoon exploring the aesthetics and conceptual possibilities for public arts proposals.  Learn techniques to fold, cut, sculpt, paint, photograph and edit your mixed-media proposal with Piero Golia and friends.  Come early for a short talk on arts proposals and stay to workshop your own.

Piero Golia was born in Naples, Italy in 1974. Recent projects range from borrowing one million dollars from a bank for few hours in order to take a picture of it twice (Two Million Dollars, 2007) and in another piece melting down his Saab – after a car accident – into the shape of a unicorn in order to pay off some debts (Untitled (Y3AT35SIE1029489), 2003). His work has been included in the California Biennial, Orange County Museum of Arts, 2008; the Moscow Biennale of Contemporary Art, Moscow, 2007; Uncertain States of America, Serpentine Gallery, London 2005, and Performa 05, New York, 2005 among others.
